O! Savior Solitude

Soldier of Serenity

Seek me out in the thickets of despair

Surround my body; sink your teeth into my neck

I have succumbed to your bludgeoning silence

“Oh, my venom is swift; let the silence drown you.”

Savior Solitude

I surrender myself to your serpentine embrace

Strangle me in your shimmering coils

Offer me your monolith hand, pull me from abandonment

“My grip is everlasting; let me ease your pain.”

Protector of the desolate

I have been frigid with desertion

Craft for me a blinding sun to liquify the ice

Sculpt for me a sea of cosmos

Where I am as everyone

Guardian of the unwanted

Rip out the nails of my rejection

“I am more radiant than the sun of suns...”

Plunge your claws into my chest

Find a home there, in my heart

You are the single one to hear it beat

“...I am the spinner, and the web shall be spun.”

“I am your God and this is your rapture; your sorrow has always been my home.”

Savior Solitude

Soldier of Eternity

Stay by my side

For there is no one else

With my final breath

I shall whisper only to you

“I am your God and this is your rapture; your sorrow has always been my home.”
