I’ve chosen you, sweet ecstasy
Because you’re making me forget,
And opening narrow portals of bliss,
Pathways to clarity and rapture

You see, I’ve elected you, beautiful serenity
To calm my stormy seas
You’re a wall before flooded thoughts
My rock against an undertow

Let me escape with thee, oh lucidity
Be a beacon to this tired ship
For the shore has ignored my plea,
My only source of comfort

Blanket me in your carefree gaze
Eyes to softly caress my cheek
Before this sun entirely sets
And the ice replaces my memories
