The Wayward Shall in Stillness Rise Eternal
Spring, lifeless in palm
Rendered inarticulate
By winter held hard
~the~
Erroneous truth
Breath of light traces the mind
Opens eye upward
~wayward~
Icon, tomb of flesh
Buries the heart, withers love
Weeping silence blind
~shall~
In red cut fields strike
The fallen shield, kin in death
Haunting song lament
~in stillness~
Raise the sea skyward
Seduce in brutal madness
Thunder sings soundless
~rise~
And scream into light
A beating distant land, where
Dormant blooms tremble
~eternal~
