He drank wine
It stirred in his blood
Then his spirit woke
I gazed through my veil
His eyes of azure
Marvels on me
Smiling mysterious
In the abyss of spirit
I glanced at him
lifting my veil
Lowered his face
his cold eyes
Chilled my soul
Still untouched
they never speak
A word for me
He walked away
Leaving me
Into oblivion
the flute played
music of ruin
Tune of
Legacy unveiled
Spirit dropping
Saddest dreams
