LETHE

LETHE

Give me a drink of the fluid

That disintegrates &

lend me the sweet balm

and blessing Of forgetfulness,

make me empty and strong.

(Lethe)

~

Hold me near,

unravel the stars.

As I speed through the heavens,

Speed through the night.

For you are my blade

and my safety .

You are my

(Lethe)

~

In currents of Lightning

You storm through my heart.

To sever, to puncture

The memories that rip me apart.

Let it sweep through my arteries.

In sharp stabs of pain

Your talonlike fingers

to kill me again.

~

Steal me, invade me

and charge me again.

For I burn and I shudder.

I Burn in the flames

~

So cleansed,

through a floodlight

I appear;

renewed and reforged.

Caressed by the sweet

balm and blessing

of forgetfulness.

~

Hold me near,

my one friend and guide

As I drown through your fingers.

Drown through your love,

For you are the life I hate.

You are my Lethe..

~

Drag me down,

in passionate sighs

With the ocean above me

And flames in my eyes.

And grant me

a life I can't live Without...

Take me away...

~

...From the life that I hate
