Prayer to Hypnos II


Hearken, Immortal Slumber

To my call, one of sole hunger

For thee I’d ne’er dare to dream

Just a fool’s dream, just as fools dream

But of lust and peace, sacred one

How I’ve craved for you to come

Curse me to fall unto thy arms

Heed me, I yearn thy kiss so dark

To break this heart of mine, so yours

And for the Guilty Sun, my scorn

Your sole enemy, Helios

I shun his light as devils

And there, deep in the abyss

I feel thy arms embrace me

Alas, my silent God of Sleep

Oh, thou art my only true king

Take me away, to thy temple

Beyond the wall of grief, in

The evergreen paradise,

Elysium and its fields

Where I will give myself to thee

Solely and completely

My fairest, my dearest

My beloved

Hypnos
