Wraith

A specter writhes Too faint for mortal eyes A mere ululation A deathless witness Lurid in demise Spawned from pain and tribulation Unsound Undead Evanescing An orphaned want, marooned In disembodied mayhem, howling Just a shadow Waning with the moon Ever yearning, ever prowling Doomed to linger, a wraith in a withered world You will never sleep again Lifeless eyes, forever haunted by the void Gage upon the tomb of man Cold and dried up The ravaged plains lie dead Buried ruins sing of the end Faces fade away Frozen in convulsion In broken temples, gods quietly die And gales roam unrestrained Lick the horror from revulsion Beneath the weeping scars in the sky
