Inter Arma - Gardens in the Dark

To Rate
Alone at the light's end
In a marbled dusk embrace
You motion me forward
Twilight threads your face

There's a code of silence
Until the dark takes shape
In this garden where
Fallen stars do not age

Your breath was lost in our youth
But still you've known all my fates
A devoted beholder kept
Behind your Eden's gate

And dare I ask why you're gone
You'll simply turn and dissolve
Into the garden where
Your enigma remains unsolved

Were you attempting to calm
A storm that wouldn't subside?
God damn that suicide
And your garden in the dark

And dare I ask why you're gone
You'll simply turn and dissolve
Into the garden where
Your enigma remains unsolved
Were you attempting to calm
A storm that wouldn't subside?
God damn that suicide
And your garden in the dark
