Amortem Lachrymose

I held your name like a curse in my throat,

With every beat - the venom you wrote.

You kissed me like a funeral hymn,

Dressed in grief, I let you in.

Amortem Lachrymose

You were the fire, I was the smoke.

Your silence carved my bones -

But I wear them like a throne.

I weep where angels never go.

My tears burn colder than snow.

This isn't love - it's what survived it.

Amortem Lachrymose...

You prayed in front of shattered glass,

But cursed the blood on your hands.

I was the altar, I was the flame -

You lit me just to curse my name.

Love is not light... it's weight.

Pulling ribs apart - too late.

No requiem for what you stole -

Just broken vows and burned-out soul!

Amortem Lachrymose

Where roses bled and angels froze.

You kissed me deep like falling knives -

Now I rise from shattered lives.

This crown of tears, I forged alone.

You broke the cage - I built the throne.

No prayer remains to sanctify it...

Amortem Lachrymose - I survived it.

You said love.

But you meant silence.
