Sorrow is nights companion

Moonlight casts the unknown

A starlit course of solemn remorse

For the journeys we face alone

From all that I was

Slowly drifting apart

Replaced by a fire

Like the heat

That quickens my heart

By clandestine whispers

Passing through leaves

Reveal private passage

Within the rings of the trees

I shed this mortal coil

Toward feral rebirth

The cloak of night now glowing

In the cloud of unknowing

What fills it deep within

The clutch of sorrow

Clasping us again

To dream without fear

The night called me here

To boldly survive

In yearning, alive

Beyond the mountains horizons

Where moonlight touches the stone

By candle flame, these secrets remain

Over lands where starlight has shone

To run wild at night

And breathe deep the air

Revel in wondrous nature

Beyond all compare

Can you hear the starsong?

Or feel the vespertine spell?

The momentary glint

As the stars danced and fell

A paralyzing fear

Seeing those you loved

Lying lifeless here

An absence within

No fiercer emptiness inside

In yearning, alive
