Tundric winds stealing your screams

Your death knells muffled by the frost

Snow that falls like sapphire meteorites

Burying deep your frostbitten bones

I can hear them, I can see them

I can hear you, I can see you

Within my glacial prison

I watch in bleak despair

By the pain of your loss

Blue lips brought to warmth,

To whisper

Your sprawling arteries bend the snow

I see them warped and warbled through my icy gaol

Etched by time into the cold escarpment

The melt of death, the coming thaw

Your will subthermal and piercing all

To bring about the gelid storm of change

Now recoiling against the growing foehn

That bastard heat which heard you too

In those that dwell within the frozen night

A dawn of fire awaits hands to touch

Scornful mask of nature's wend

To teach the ouroboros of change

In frost I tell your tale

In wind a legend spreads

In melt your plight survives

In steam the cactus hear

To those spies of heat

I cry of your return

To those desert dancers

Burnt yet frozen within

I promise of your frigid return

Forever entwined

With your eternal cold

I your messenger

Crippled yet dutiful

Wailing from caves of

Crystalline sin
