Kraken

Into the burning red sky
I fly, I try
Failing, stalling
Flailing, falling
Into the sea

Into her blue eyes
I sigh, Good bye
Sinking, drowning
Heartbeat pounding
My silent plea

I feel your arms around me
In the darkening dim
I don’t know how you found me
But for Fate’s dark whim
I cannot see your face
But I feel your caress
Take me to the place
Absolve as I confess

Kraken heart and Kraken eye
With sharpened beak and silent cry
Fool me, hold me as I die
Make me believe she’s by my side
Kraken heart and Kraken eye
Hold me deep under the tide
To find the world where she resides
Let me this moment live the lie.

As above, below
The flow of undertow
Sinking, Holding
In drink enfolding
To find thee

All that I know
The woe I forego
Longing, dreaming
Prolonging screaming
Wordlessly

Your embrace, it surrounds me
Hear the harkening hymn
Coils weighing down me
Reaping through the grim
Oblivion’s giant eye
A lover’s inky kiss
Bidding me goodbye
Into the heart’s abyss

Kraken heart and Kraken eye
With sharpened beak and silent cry
Fool me, hold me as I die
Make me believe she’s by my side
Kraken heart and Kraken eye
Hold me deep under the tide
To find the world where she resides
Let me this moment live the lie.

Kraken heart and Kraken eye
And all the love I can’t deny
So on your whispers I rely
To hold my hand and answer “why?”
Kraken heart and Kraken eye
Into your frigid heart confide
Entangled like a lover’s bride
Let my last sight be her blue eyes.
