Tomb of Damnatio Memoriae

6/11/2019

Picture
Sealed away in a sepulcher of bountiful avarice; ignorance in the shadows of men
Not a prison but a monument to cruel excess
White gold idols of the weakened; beloved tools of harm
You hang far above our heads while buried deep below
 
A legacy of righteousness halted forever; interred among the dirt
The blood dries in the sand with you; the last empress of the shallow
Withered flesh betrays your once grand visage
It was time for us to let you go; a wayward path often taken
The end of your forsaken reign brought light to the darkness
 
A moon begs for your blessings; while a kingdom forgets
Love was all you promised; harm was the reality
Kindly take our memory away
Wrap it up like the vessel you once portrayed
 
An etched birthright carved into oblivion by the mislead; annulled from the world
They chose to abolish your memory
But as your body lies underneath; your phantom remains high in the night sky
The fools of avarice adorn your shrine; a muted song in your name
The lands of death and life await your return
 
A tomb fractured to reveal a broken heart
Weak and feeble traitors to the sky they stand; deceivers of your divinity
It had to be done
No sorrow for you; forgotten Pharaoh
