I am suprised no one has commented on this poem. It gives me the creepiest imagery. I've really put some thought into trying understand what exactly is the meaning but I think it's about a kind of ritual.

I really like some of the imagery, this song has some strong ties with a few of my favorite songs

as the blossoms fall.

from Bleed me an ocean -

Old blossom dies - bleed me an ocean

I feel the flowers screaming to consume you (Like murder) Earth and sky your cradle, earth and sky entomb you And death beside me - Graveflower

It's satanic. It was either from a Paegan or Satanic bible, Dax and Sammie talked about it in an interview. A lot of their songs are from either paegan or satanic bibles.

Really glad someone else noticed the lines from other songs.
