The Amber Twilight

Darkness stretch these realms that taint me

On these sheets forever curled

She who drew the light from shadows

Never shall again be held...

Spectre of the idle hours

Rest upon this dying sun

We who touched the souls of all

In mortal life shall not be one

Life bereft of sight or reason

Save your gentle afterglow

I, beneath a placid dreaming

Cower when the soft winds blow

Cower for it's all I know

Mourning shall I slumber always

Rise to wish of dreams that mend

The agony of your departure

Will this sadness never end?

Evergreen immortal pasture

Whence you rest, a dream below?

Do you live in timeless love

Or shall your pain I never know?

One day shall we grace these skies

Entwined again forever held

Together in the amber twilight

One within another world
