Empty.

Written by: The Kensai, Sir Tahlnaith Nimethlya-Thalion
Date: Friday, February 27th, 2004
Addressed to: Everyone


As I look into your cold, empty eyes, I see everything I've ever done
reflected back at me

All my deeds, my sins. My entire life within seconds flashes before me

I cannot help but become entranced by your blank stare, resting in my
arms

All my thoughts and desires meld into one pure feeling. My mind goes
foggy and I cannot think

I close my eyes, for fear of breaking this experience through mortal
sight

My entire body shudders with pain and pleasure, a deep and warm tingling
overtaking my nerves

I can feel nothing physical anymore. All my senses have been taken away
from me

The blade falls from my hand, the deep cut in my wrist gushing blood all
over your lifeless body

I fall to the ground, weak and whimpering. I whisper, "I love you, my
dear." and join you in death's embrace as emptiness overtakes me

Penned by my hand on the 21st of Midautumn, in the year 122 MA.
