Let there be light and porcelain
“——Before we become stones, before you.”
I erased myself before
you become a memory
Unveiling in disarray
Rewinding the despair machineries
Sensing organs sensory
The origami heartshaped
As if it can take away
the heartache and heartbreak
Heed the clock
It engulfed you
Enveloped me as a broken autobiography
Egress to our own Elysium
There's not much there and many more
Okay, for starters, a statue of Ankou
Florence the nightangel
Justice without heart
And a table only for mints
The wine are plenty
If only a little dry
You become a cloud in the room
As I smashed all the windows
With a broken piano and a lying guitar
Lied there be music and porcelain
Your blood is warm in me
And I became the invisible hand
To command tragic stories
You want the three act
I gave you a serenade
Somehow that is okay
Only shatters and shadow would suffice
The only time I signed the preface with my full name
Of all the carmines in Acropolis
I caught my eye and gave my eye onto you
