When
The winds
Strongest,
The nights
Darkest,
And I lay
Alone,
In the core
Of the
Moonless night,
Cradled by
The darkness,
Smothered by
The cursed,
Bearing a heart
So decayed
Where the poison
Now frozen,
So empty
Where life
Fails to exist,
Remember…
You are
The only life
Among the dead.
My last burning candle
Of the longest winter night!
