Chapter 7 - Purified
Purified
I have long ago forgotten
The feel of sunlight on my skin.
The memory of that warmth has rotten,
As have the bodies of my kin.
Scarlet blood, pale teeth and face
Flash again before these ebon eyes.
Or are they still? The mirror's pace
Is untethered by my forlorn cries.
All alone, and I grow weary
Of dragging centuries and days.
Things repeat no things to merry
Millennia passing in bloody haze.
And so I trespass in the Light
When I must linger in the Dark.
But just for once, to see a sight
Unknown in places grim and stark.
To end this existence, my “life” undead?
Is far too tempting to resist.
Relieved, I lay down this ancient head.
Away to join the ones I've missed.
