Lily

by Mistress   Nov 13, 2005


Thou quench Thy thirst
with my tears
Thou art my tyrant
Thou feed on my fears
Everyday growing
august and stronger
I don't think I can take
this any longer
My worst nightmare
haunting me by day
And even at night
Thy hatred seems to stay

Stealing all nourish, all vitality from me
A pale rose without strength to fight
Taking without giving, nothing left to be
Forever
The lily of the night

The one who gave
the rose its thorns
The one who brought death
only by being born
I've ceased flowering
there is nothing more to take
I've been teard up by my roots
in Thy hands I will break
All my petals have fallen
in my heart there is gloom
Lily, in my eyes Thou will always be
a withered flower in bloom
