Leaves of every color fall,
Unto my ashen face forever emotionless.
In the sky vultures shriek.
*
Then my heart did stop,
And in its place the coldness thrives.
Never to be heard, the broken pulse.
*
Without light darkness rules,
No one dares utter its cursed name.
In darkness the serpent strikes.
*
Leaves of the rotten fall,
Unto my ashen face devoid of life.
During the night vultures feast.
