immortal prayer
written by SilentScreamsofDeath
04:58 AM 1/10/05
To You, oh, Moon of mine,
so full and bright
do I now extend my gaze.
My mortal eyes drawn
but with merely human wonder.
Could it be more, perhaps?
Could I possess a perception
beyond the constraints
of decaying flesh and bone?
I stare and I wonder,
marveling at your infinite beauty.

Would that I, too,
could exist as you exist --
to know this world from only
a Nocturnal point of view;
to appreciate the beauty of
an evening subdued by an
absence of abundant light,
to focus upon the sanctuary of
heightened sensuality as
shadowed upon the savory flesh of
feline teenage faces
and of those, too, whom
we speak of in whispers and
hush up in legend.

Grant me the Gift that
gives life-eternal;
The flesh I will cherish,
and satisfy Immortal.
Deliver me into everlasting shadow
and symphony of night.
