Make your place within this world
And find your memory warehouse
Mine is in the ocean in the crashing waves and gentle breezes
Misty, non-habitual, falling trees
Jack and Jill of unfortunate device ...
STOP CHASING ME
First with your fist - then your presence
And your voice - so sad
I am not guilty of this, either ...
Don't put the blame where it is not welcome.
Cry your eyes out
And then maybe you can see the truth
I have been too battered to forgive for the moment
Too scared to ever forget
Let me get on with my HAUNTINGS ...
Spells - MAGIC - my life - my soul
Enriched with the golden blood of older times
My ancient wisdom tries to grasp not striking DOWN
That which I can so easily destroy
Mercy of one who could crush is hard-pressed to annihilate ...
My ghost-like presence will not give you fear
Because you will drown in your own sorrow soon enough
My efforts need not be used.
So when the night whispers your name - be afraid ...
Be VERY AFRAID ...
And when ceaseless wind howls and roars in your hollow, ringing ears ...
Cry for what you have lost -
For you have lost so very much.
