The Song Of A Departed Soul

As the wind blew against my cheeks,
It whispered something in my ears,
Something that the sun never knew;
And the moon never told.

Bow the sudden chill of melancholy;
A call from beyond the heavens…
A call for me to depart!

Night like an audacious fiend
Had seized my life tonight.
In my mystery of sadness,
I just forgot how to cry…

The black moors beyond me;
Its silence in glory stillness…
Beyond awaits the stars;
Struggling to make me light!
As to the wind…to wipe my tears.

A look behind,
At the tranquility of the ocean,
Not knowing what it is to die…!
Like a ship sans a captain,
I fly my kite high.
Not knowing where or why,
With tears I fly into the sky!

I know not the ashen calmness,
Nor the serene white cloud.
In its rain of cowardly distress,
I join my soul, depart!

Behind the veils,
Unseen but foreseen;
Awaits what looms behind!
To the one that told me to live,
I head for…. to die!

***
Beyond the ties of an Ancient fold,
Arises a man without a soul
The one to whom I sing this song
A song of this departed soul

I strike my head to sing a song,
A song so hollow in desperate dongs!
None that you’ll hear throughout your life,
For one can’t dwell when once alive!

Curse the suns for my mysterious rime,
Disaster dwells by its rhyme!
Never in my life, I’ve been alive;
To listen to the cries of the sacred chimes…
For my destined day did never lie!

But I’ll live by my ashes;
Till the day says die.
Never forever for the nations pride,
For the day did tell me to die.

Desperate hearts will find their way,
Out beyond the Bresterer’s Bay.
To live alive along with death
Against the mourning fated day!
