The Unreturning

The moon is out Wolves are howling cloud-peaking When I am far away from gone Dead to return upon thee world There watched I for the dead Walking upon peering grave no ghost woken Gloaming darkness among the gusty wind blowing through me Feeling flesh still burning ashes falling within the light Lost in darkness, I fear of shadows my sorrow; I could not awaken The unreturning endureth for ever Darkness and Rootless hear me moan awaken in chains it wore Breathe in the ghostly air watch upon the graves from hell Lingering across the land the unreturning Will not returning Many tears within the sleepless hours Moaning but never heard The unreturning with no return
