CS Mackay-Bennett

Ego Eris

Compositor: Marc Nero

As for the unknown
Despite of their households
They’re denied to stand within

Those who had no home
No title or heritage
Must sink forever

Going under
Those horrid masks
Torn under the waves of ice
Lost their shapes and colors

In surrender, hand in hand
Some held tight to their beloved companions
To rot

They weight in my heart
But now it’s too late

Side by side, in piles
Not hard to remember
Withdrawn to be embalmed
Thrown back to the white void

Time went by
With vows they took from the bible
Therefore, we commit
This body to the deep
