Marrow Nights

Is this yet a nightmare?
But the flesh is so close to the marrow,
The destruction, has Armageddon come?
I gaze into the stars that the undead bear,
Why do they choose to linger on?
Something more is concealed,
Within the darkness a diamond faintly glimmers then fades.
“Forget the world, forfeit life!”
Said the man; a sudden shout,
And I awake.
I grasp my bed and cry,
For the past still lingers in my mind.
