| Lyrics: |
VESPERA
Recognition in your eyes, yet still you come
Walking up my stairs, smelling of Church.
Steeped in beeswax, incense, relics, and crucifixes,
I am even taken by the scuff on the toe of your shoe.
My senses ache, sampling you, a rising martyr.
I will erase the scribe's scrawl on your features.
Christianized, bastardized. Restored to narrative epic
You will be on my pagan lips. My name on your flesh.
The stroke of my blade slanted...looping and trailing,
Handwritten, imparting both purpose and desire.
Your fingertips brush a whispered rasp along the rail,
Eyes lifted in prayer, finding solace in my promise
To receive your offering. A step and two, ever closer
In supplicant ascent to your Savior, night's Confessor.
Faithful pleas, sorrow for the morrow, I will succor you.
Cloistered in the dark folds of evening's finest cloak,
The Sacrament begins, as your vows become vespers,
Simple in their earnest cries of "please" and "please."
Bleed for the bridegroom your very breath, panting
A new Pater Noster as I drink from this cup.
In memory of you
Unforesaken
Lover, in my arms
At last,
World without end.
