Filigree and onyx
In the afterlife
Mesmerizing patterns
Laid out to entice
Float and rise
I'm alive
History burns out my eyes
Slave of life
Ancient light
Streams until
I'm mesmerized
Sultry Cleopatra
Never saw her die
Stretching out the hours
To paradise
Falling down
Upside down
Watch the hour glass slipping
I'm stuck inside
I'm alive
Infinitely swimming
Let me out
