Daffodils

The day the daffodils were in bloom

Winter came over my heart

Regardless of the sun reigned gloom

As a freeze was put upon my heart

The darkest storm came over my firmament

And colored my entire world black

And a deluge came down from weeping skies

Swept me away with the ruthless tides

We still sing about the time

When we were young and free

Adoring summers too far gone

While every beauty grows its fangs

Youth always blended with grief

That soon turned into a romance

A handful of scars surprisingly painful

But yet leading toward spring

With every gleam of light

That broke hope through the skies

We thought that we were through it all

But only now I know that in the end

It was just the eye of the storm

I desperately wait for the day

Where I won't see the morning sun

Where my eyes keep closely shut

Even though a new day has begun

Where I don't care for all that's left

Where I don't care for anything

When I transcend per aspera ad astra

Ab astris ad aspera

Per aspera ad astra

Through the streets with air of poison

Through remains of ancient forests

Through the oceans of piss and shit

And through the never-ending frontlines

Over mountains of nothingness

Along the avenues lined with gallows

Along the everlasting cycle

Ad nauseam
