[ I am the recipient of nothing, gathering misfortunes,
Walking through atmospheres of love and decay ]
-
-
The whispers of silence,
Call to reconcile my mind with torn visions of actuality
Known only through monotone escapes within airs
of approaching sunlight
Yet assuming a distant countenance,
So lost to my will and perceptions
-
In skies of black,
I pray for the salvation of the stars,
For the arrival of a greater God
-
So much about being alive feels like eternity,
Stagnant,
Where everything seems to be resting without me
Thinking of existence in different ways
If perhaps I am alive because the Sun saw me, instead
-
In these longings of magnificent measures,
All of life seems irrelevant
When all I want to do is stare into the dark
When all I want to do is die right here....

Oh gods and gods again, this is like the wind before the reaper himself comes to take away your love...Melancholy, you said it and I shall not disagree...

"Where everything seems to be resting without me" - i love this line especially. Somehow, it seems to encapsulate a lot of the feelings I get from this write. And the title couldn't more accurately express this piece. :) Lovely.

The end...it left me torn. Short comment, and cliche, but here it is. Fucking awesome.

It was wordy and distant, but I suppose thats how melancholy should be portrayed.

the ending kind of grabbed me... this one wasn't over yet... very well put, solid, yet moving at the same time.

This is most beautiful, indeed...gripping and calming, somehow. Enchanting work.
