grey rain falls and freezes

a plague of memory
falls upon the dead earth

and black depths of time
streatch endless
unsommened eons
call to me

under a lifeless sun
the woods, a sleeping power
lingers under frozen earth

a power, asleep but not dead
listens for footsteps in the snow
feed me with thy eternal essence

though i slumber i shall wake
though my weakness trembles
at the breath of thy black soul
like the burn sacrifice of love's sacred longing

i shall become as thee
immortal, pure, ruthless, divine
in abscentia luci, tenebrae vinicunt
in darkness, so shall i shine
i shall not sleep in unrememberance
death where is thy sting
I summon THEE
this brief sorrow
this dull pain
death is not the end
