fading

The day fell and night came;
In the dark i stood alone,
mind filled with prior thoughts of a red future, gleaming gold
A bleeding earth and crust fold!
The cold Kachikau winds recycled in to my nostrils the breath of the late me!

I saw the end of the world;
like a rose during the dry season the future was fading,
The walls we built were trembling down,
The rock of my salvation weathered and her spirit erouded.

The Kachikau horizons were levelled,
The times you were with me when i was with you were no more
a fire burned them to the depths of sheol!

We dug a pit and fell into it;
We made the earth bleed...
Our lips consumed us!
now we and all are fading....
