Frost Upon The EmbersDim skies - potent fear in their harsh criesThe hilltops we climb Disparagingly climb Wreak of agony In dwellings below Kin threatened, I know A predator waiting in numbers Watches its prey and hungers For death - senses their helplessness Bound, I can only watch as it lunges for the kill Daylight wanes The unprotected village hastily assailed Flame soon erupts in chaos Shining light over disappearing shadows Rising - As do the ferns from the forests to the mountains And grows my anguish and hatred Dusk makes its conquest And night drapes the skies The ocean pushing inland Fills the shallow bay Lifting their vessels Only death is found there The fire dances, leaving indelible scars upon the Earth I cannot bear the sight, and drift into slumber A resilient blue glow Contrasts sharply with a figure Bright and luminescent Featureless face, only white and glowing eyes Disembodied voices Wind like the inhale of a dying beast With cold breath She speaks in lost tongues Raising the hairs on my neck Terrifying, yet beautiful A sharp chill runs through my body I'm awakened by night's frigid breath Bonds 'round me loosened Severed Almost entirely Quietly I slip into the dark I walk for hours My pains intensify Until I turn My direction implied I shall trust this feeling as it guides Into the untamed forest, I confide |
