Consumed

A lover descending into madness as their beloved fades away.

Beneath the moon's pale, weeping light,
I clutch your shadow, cold as night.
Your breath grows faint, your touch withdraws,
A ghostly echo in these hollow halls.

The roses blacken, thorns entwine,
As whispers twist this heart of mine.
Your voice, a wisp, now fades to air,
I chase the silence, lost in despair.

The mirrors crack, their gaze unkind,
Reflecting shards of a fractured mind.
I see your face in every tear,
A haunting love, a growing fear.

The clock ticks slow, its hands decay,
As madness steals my soul away.
In endless dark, I call your name,
A lover lost, consumed by flame.
