Xeno Hemlock

In the years that passed I have not forgotten
The smallest bite of my preferred heaven
The world’s ending and it appears out of reach
The gods and forefathers have arrived to teach

Did my best to be holy and to remain chaste
The love they gave me I didn’t let go to waste
But in my darkest hour I fell to temptation
Bless me my gods, I await redemption
