Ægri Somnia

He did not move
His face transfigured
Hateful mask

Fathomless soul
Would you allow
A question to be asked?
None, sir!

Eyes steadily fixed
On the horizon
What fierce abhorrence
Did this man await?

Forbidden secrets
Kept it hidden well
Future holds nothing
For them but cruel fate!

Luminous glove
Died
Left us
In darkness

Nemo's morbid slumber
Bereft me of my mind
I fell my brain stupefied
Entangled and entwined

Suspicion seized me
Undulations of the sea
As I tried to resist sleep
My breathing grew weak

Nemo's morbid slumber
Bereft me of my mind
I fell my brain stupefied
Entangled and entwined
