It was a cold dawn so pure
When the seeds were sown
Her skin moaned scars
My daughter wedded with rot
She was purified through flames

But decay claimed her soul
Faith vigilance breeding
As november invited starvation
Our morning widows

They laid with pestilence

Chivalry drowned in blood
These borrowed ephemeral moments
Under the aegis of horned deities

I ushered brethren to their rest
Jewels of lost faith beneath me
Numerous like masked stars above
Falling white shrouded their memory

No kindred to bury my husk
Allegiant venom burning deep
Obeisance never crowns my grave

Plague that spred through north
