The Black Seed of torment

the haunter of dreams

Looking for lost souls

scatter its seed around the land

among the rich harvest of the good

The Black Seeds,

digs deep in their own decay.

Dark Angels' eyes

when he turns to look at me

are like two empty mirrors

I didn't find myself in them

only the dark of the weeping

He doesn't speak or gesture,

He never follows when

I run from the dark rooms

He provokes me in his silence

He seems to look at me without a care

he brings so much fear

He stares deep in the night

like he is lost in another time,

I had always been afraid of his kind

I have grown afraid of the dark

because Dark Angel left his mark

I know in my heart.

He will always be a big part of me

we are inseparable from each other

we are like the changing wind.

Lost in a shipwreck of time

he is always on my mind

Black Seed is he, eating away at me.
