Prayer to St. Lucifer

Solitary mind of mine,
Raptures into the forbidden hours
The hours, the hours, ah! The hours.

Salty tears teases,
On innocent cheeks, flowing
Free flowing, flowing, finally free.

Things left unsaid,
Reality thwarts, this hopeless romantic
The hopeless, the hapless, the hopeless pleas.

Dreams perfume, the naïve
A whole life led. Shoo! these poisonous dreams!
Poisonous hours, poisonous hope, this flowing poison.

The uninvited pirate, strides on
Impassive villain, oh! Uncompassionate marauder.
Marauding the hours, plunder these hopeless flowing dreams…

I beg of you,
Take your leave.
