Enshrined - WRVTH

Entombed in silver and gold

Lowered beneath soil and churning ember

Resting under a blanket of stone

Erosion of muscle and bone

Hair, teeth, and nails recede

Rejection of spirit and creed

Distilled in wine and holy water

The baptism of an estranged daughter

Enshrined in blotted ink and prose

Sonnets and sorrows eternally perched as crows

Converging the sound of our roaring confession

Spread across a sinking foundation

Immortalized by one simple quotation

«All that we love shall fade

The blood is stained upon the page

If we die, we die as one

Absorbed into the final setting sun
