Black Rain

Copyright © 2009 Ofira Sephiroth

Black rain from a bleeding moon,
my tenderness is silence veiled -
these conjured storms will sing my tune.

Unparted lips have yet to croon,
deserted cries, my eyes have failed -
black rain from a bleeding moon.

Timeless is the souls' monsoon,
upon your wingless flail I've sailed -
these conjured storms will sing my tune.

My eyes invite, your heart's immune,
tearless the ache when love's curtailed -
black rain from a bleeding moon.

Torment reigns from dusk til noon,
this nightly grave, my soul assailed -
these conjured storms will sing my tune.

My bitterness has come too soon,
relentlessly my eyes have hailed -
black rain from a bleeding moon,
these conjured storms will sing my tune.
