sweet anodyne

[Juan Juanders]

sweet anodyne, o' mind eraser
annoint this fallen star-crossed gazer
'neath your chapel do I dwell
in sanctum from a heartsick hell
tear away what is not mine
let my blood be turned to wine

death o' darkness, death my love
come to me on wings of dove
hell below and heaven above

heaven above and hell below
half of I to each shall go
death o' darkness, love my foe
