Woe to the vessel For it couldn’t compose The igniting spark Oh, it shuddered And collapsed Beneath the weight of it all Slowly it is reassembled As a wound not seen but felt No sense of presence Oh, again it shudders Oh, again it collapsed The vessel It wept And crept behind the door Echoes dripping down the walls Crawling underneath the floor Procession to a grave Unknown is the one we mourn An entity lost on its way To this our physical plane It was a shadow Cast from a flame Indestructible energy that still remains
