Elysium. (By Sapphirus)

In the misty mountains where silence sighs,
He lingers in the dark hold,
Dark grasp of the embracing shadows,
Beneath the weeping and ghastly skies,
Thundering and wailing,
A tale of sorrow left untold,
Long forgotten as the passing clouds,
Celestial orbs revolving in the distant space,
Observe his slow and decaying grace,
His heart mutilated,
A fragile shattered glass,
In the soft kisses of the wind,
Panacea to his eternal being.

In the misty mountains where silence sighs,
Through the haunted peak where phantoms twist,
He walks on a path of inevitability,
Path of light long faded and gone,
His soul hollow with immense despair,
A vessel painted in crimson,
Vessel controlled by the storm raging within,
Tortured dreams in bottomless pit,
The Moon's serene gaze,
A chilling yet lingering kiss,
Reflecting his inner turmoil,
His forgotten abyss haunting again,
Each step a mournful pleading,
In his chaotic dance with misery itself.

In the misty mountains where silence sighs,
His poisoned thoughts decay,
Dripping of toxin with cure unknown,
Vulnerability's cruel sway,
Where every breath feels a fading mistake,
So wrong,
So wrong,
His spirit crumbling pieces by pieces,
Fragments by fragments of his shattered pride,
No solace to be seen and no sweetness shall remain,
The mist around him are his spectral chains,
In darkened skies of silent pain.

In the misty mountains where silence sighs,
He stands alone in the blossoming wrath,
A being etched in sorrow's thread,
His essence fading, withering as it goes,
A captive drowning in the tears he's shed,
The stars above him indifferent,
In the night's cruel weave he is lost,
A haunting echo of what he has been,
He lingers where the light is thin,
Escaping and escaping,
Endlessly.
