An Idyllic Nightmare 

We awoke on a cold December dawn, 

Our souls stirring at the sunrise. 

The symphony of the deathless waves, 

Tickling the long-perished desire. 

We awoke as we never slept, 

The chanting of your heartbeat, 

Endlessly singing in my ears. 

I see your ghost when I close my eyes. 

Together, my love, 

We fell asleep to the melodies of heaven, 

And we woke to the hymns of hell, 

Blissful agony. 

And in the haze, 

A peaceful storm, 

Of dread and longing, 

Of love and hate, 

Of apathy and passion. 

Honey, we are past long dreams, 

We are the horrors of the abyss, 

The shadows of a nightmare. 

And I fight to close my eyes, 

Forever, 

I wish to leave it all soon.
