The Lung Chronicles

by Maple Tree   Aug 7, 2017


Within depths of madness
corrosion seeps wildly,
drowning a soul
In silence.

This cave becomes
my wicked solitude,
for I build walls
Inside this castle.

I have become your breath!

I am the visions of your destiny;
I'm your creation my love
embrace me, for I am death,
peaceful, deathly hallows.

Touch my boney soul
and together we shall
dance, one
Last
Time.
