Lullaby No. 18 - Elysian Fields

Escaping thoughts galloped
Through the Elysian Fields
The contemplation
Extinguishing the intellect
And done
Sweet afterlife
Egress
Your soul was spirited
Galloping away from your mind
And its callous Reason
After your light
The incandescence of your flickering self
Coursing through the shadows
Hunting blind
You sought that which you could not see
Though knew it present
From the shivers down your spine
And through your veins
Like a heroine
That tickled your fancy
At the mere spirited thought
Of touching death
An embassy
