Eternity Part Ii

Anathema

So little time

Your crystal eyes gaze into mine

A burning flame

Forever dreaming, dreaming a lie



Trapped inside internal eyes

Caressed by innocence, a sanctuary for you mind

Born alone beneath pale sardonic skies

One love, one life, one sorrow



I won't reproach myself this time

A condemned man, granted a sweet reprieve

A turn of fate, a genial twist of the knife

Undying affection for life
