Whiter Shade of Pale

W-inter comes and steals the soul,
H-ollowed out now, where once was whole,
I-ntake the air's stale breath,
T-ime will hold you until death,
E-lude life to disappear,
R-uined insides shed a tear.

S-hallow corpse, drained from within,
H-ell eats out the heart, dripped in sin,
A-shen cloak covers the skin,
D-aylight ceased to penetrate in,
E-mpty void consumes therein.

O-utward world fades away,
F-orced out by white of day,

P-ale light illuminates the heaven's sky,
A- faint hope emerges, now breath may die,
L-ast exhale extinguishes the soul,
E-ternal brokenness, leaves in whole.
