There He Lies (Requiem) Poem by RazonAnny Justin

There He Lies (Requiem)



Stream of knowledge, there he lies
In sleep deeper, earth his prize
Compareth your sojourn to day
Read your historical morn, noon wished us to share
But I, nature delayed to birth, came in your pondering eve
And saw him wilt the first night of our sleep
Anaesthetized, both lay in silence to work
Could define death ‘xcept for my breath and the clock
Out of slumber stirred, revive my soul to fly
Remember, my time ne’er yet nigh
Not venture me into this sublunary impact
Whence mausoleum vivid, semblance intact
I pass marbles silhouettes on each memorial tomb
I pass the calm sensing your virginity torn
Alas! Those secrets turn to dust
In vast cherubic vaults whom lay your trust
Wreaths at your door; worms in your core
Savoring these visions, my consciousness leap’d
Somberness of weary, slipped me to sleep
To consumate this battle of Flies
In Reqiuem mourn; there He lies
