Elopement

My words like carrier doves arise To speak the words of troth The elder shades above these lands I feel stifling to throttle The felony of our forbears Their irreverence to life Sin and corruption sovereignty My consciousness remains shady In dark veils of reflections Like fertile rain on dried lands Your virtuous words do sound In ghastly dreams and hollow fields My shady life goes round Disharmony of our precursors' storyline Behind the mask of the untruth Lurks a sacrilegious old oath On the soothe wings of time Head to the pine trees Follow my runaway This path of snow will Lead us too faraway A frozen landscape Sounds of a distant bell And soughing leaves Bidding us farewell The longing shadows indicate sunlight can't hold Before I step onto these lands again the mystery will unfold The dusk is near Embrace my fear On this dim and murky grove Now disoriented we rove Closer come and hold me tight Shivering to falling night Fading rays of distant sun Make this pale land look more wan Keep your step, we're not alone Heading into the unknown On the wings of weaving time In the misty freezing rime Where unspoken dangers lurk Silhouettes fading in the dark
