Ablution

Calmness reigns in the forest
As the storm brews

The wind cleansing the taboos
Here goes the Devil's nest

The branches sway
The leaves dancing to this play

Nature's holy orchestra blows
A melody that soothes and flows

Beckoned, the drops fall
On the flora standing tall

Appeased is Gaia's blain
Soothed by the pellets of rain

Faded

I woke up this morning
With my eyes burning
And tears streaking

You were never mine
Yet, why, oh why do I pine?
Everything's gonna be just fine

That's the subject of my monologue
Since I was enchanted by you, mystagogue
It helps a little to pull through
In trying to get over you

Yes, I thought I was healed
But I'm lost in this wreckage
Unable to register the message
In your love's thorny field

I have understood
But this heart of mine
It does still whine
Its passion is too crude

Please, Maiden, don't misunderstand
I've tried to be the better man
And I wish you well
But more importantly, farewell
For I have sought refuge in Mnemosyne's den
