May Frost Cover Sorrow

alone i stare...

noth searching or waiting

i no longer hope

the plains are dead

and the mountains frozen

no more sounds in the woods

they were taken by the sun

no longer even the passing of time

no death, no life

i look to the sky...

and its like a frozen lake

still and blurred

no waves, no life

and the extensions upon me

are filled with smoke

the remains of sounds

are memories or miths

i am standing still

at the frozen end

captured so long ago

picture of what was and still is

i, covered in ice dust

i, ash and sorrow

sometimes even the night fails to come

but its all the same

sometimes the wind whispers

and brings some rain

just tears of [trusting]

in what will be forever

the desolation lives

in the silence of the mountains

they who stand afar

frozen in mist, dead but watching

i stay still...

amongst the dead i live

amongst the living i'm dead

never to leave the land

never to rest...
