Sanctum

I felt the earth shake.

I watched the stars glimmer.

You said, “I’m your last mistake.”

You said, ” I must be quicker.”

 

You’ll feel the rain I promise,

Hurt no one again, I promise

 

I watched your blood run cold,

You’ll never grow old.

I watched your eyes close,

And your last breath I behold.

 

The trees swayed with silence,

The wind whispered your last word,

I said you’re my last mistake,

And you just quivered.

 

You’ll feel the rain, I promise,

Hurt no one again, I promise

 

I watched your blood run cold

You’ll never grow old,

I watched your eyes close,

And your last breath I behold.

 

You should never take an innocent child’s smile away,

You will swim with the fishes.
