Love From the Fourth Dimension



In all the world I have not but my life
In all the dead who wander in my soul
I’m burdened by my time under the knife
Into my chest hath carved a bloodied hole
Worship at the altar of wrath and lust
Two deadly sins that have engulfed my mind
Turn back and see our brotherhood of trust
Turn back the clock, and begin to unwind
A cinder in the crackling fireplace
Which will, in time, cause our palace to burn
I feel the creeping shadow on my face
In this painful gyre we all shall perne
I’ve not in this world but my one true love
I shall see him in the stars that reign above

About this poem

I wrote this because someone told me I couldn't and because I love my boyfriend.
