Alone
I awake in the morning,
the cold clinging to my unawakened bones
Dew glistens in fleeting beauty,
I am alone
Skies of scarlet smile, I turn away
None to love nor be loved
On my throne I sit,
I am alone
I awake in the morning,
the red sky turns slowly grey,
the green grass everlastingly fades
The birds smile,
I turn away
I am alone
A cage of grim strength gilds my skin
All faces to grey, devoid of life, devoid of sin
The sweetest pains turn to pitiless pleasure,
how my strength and solitude I treasure
I am alone
I awake in the morning,
the dawn air eases my chest
Smile all you will my sweetest friend,
but the cold I have become
And as I sink into my throne of lifeless bones,
I am as I always have been,
tired and alone
