1. In The Myst of The Frozen Dawn Life Fell to Content 2. Mourning by Moonlight
1. In The Myst of The Frozen Dawn Life Fell to Content
Part I
On a path whose air is tainted with content
I once lost hope and will to progress
(To be content with life
Is to lose love, Passion, and happiness)
By chance it seemed that I found a way
To feel again the warmth of emotion
By all I love and do admire
I swear my darkened heart did sing
The contentment of life
Had faded to leave a pure desire
Upon reflection I see that fatal error
A soul in torment can never be
Alone and secular from do grief
Which has granted me my heartfelt loss
“So whether time shall smile at me
I will learn and grow without repent
As I walk forward forever content”
Part II
Why is it thus as sweet affections bloom
My object weeps in a dark and sunken tomb?
Your misery is felt in the heart of man
Or by one who loves thee as the day
While pain hath hurled me to your hands
I am clean by you as wicked night is cleansed by day
At times at night I journey forth
With eyes that burn and do aspire
Gaze at beauty and know it’s worth
Grasp a face all earth inspired
Why is it thus as sweet affections bloom
My object weeps in a dark and sunken tomb?
Your misery is felt in the heart of man
Or by one who loves thee as the day
Where in my soul can the strength reside?
To rise me up on wing to sing
Your praise such that you will abide
My love; and in union await that which ages bring
So in the darkness
Evening suffered and Died
But one shown through the mist of
Avalon
Some where within our
Timid night
I wept in sorrow
At Death so bitter that I shall
Never smile again
