A tragic poem of Lost Love. Codex Consecratio


Press play before reading. Salute.



Santiago's Love Letter to Sofia

(A lone voice whispers into the night. Lonely and cold)


The last time I saw you

Was like cataclysm’s of 

An unquieted mind


I tried to decipher my own 

Codex Consecratio


To overcome 

And conquer 


My own self-deprecating 

Code Red


For

You are my dangerous solo

Mission 


My one-way ticket 

To Loves

Dark side of its crimson prisms


And Moons


I dream to manifest 

And wait until the 

End of Days 

At your much-sought side


For I have been metaphorically 

Blindfolded and willingly

Cohersed and

Dragooned


For I’m but a naive hostage

To you 



My penance 

To serve my own red devil

My majick


My 

Scarlet Lady 


Without notions of fears

Or that human weakness 

Betrayed through wet tears


Am I but a pitiful man


Tied and lashed to your 

Never-ending 

Crosses Of Gaslighting

 

And infernal 

Damnation's 


Overflowing 

And drowning in tribulations 


Forever embroiled within 

Lost lunacies of 

Dark Confessions

Of love


Do I speak in unfathomable tongues


Is that why you

Leave me lonely 

Always


Drowning in this red symphony

Awaiting the much sought-after days


When 

I appear as your own

Red churches


Self-imposed 

Crimson 

Altarpiece


Only 

Epiphany
