Grave Unraveling

as reality unravels

revisiting the void
at once i shunned

i look to see the serpent
has ensnared me
and siphoned my last ounce
of sympathy

as joys of yore
extinguish seriatum

a seraphim is severed
of its wings

in sorrow
i had sought out desolation

for respite
did arose a desperate plea

but destiny absconded
with the daylight

whose defeat was suffered
at the hands aneath

no more shall mortal mire
henceforth remand me

this soul will shed its shell
and sing reprieve
