Yearning Years

The night has sunken over the thousand trees and snow covers the barren fields
Draped in anguish I call for the moon:
“Luna! Where art thou, my nocturnal Empress…
Unveil thyself, guide my withered eyes between branches
Lead me, away, along the spine of worlds
Luna...”
Unanswered I fumble along paths, like a shiver on Earth’s skin
Further, deeper, but suddenly I stop
For above, out of darkness, I see Her eyes peering at me with a cold white stare
“Empress!” I howl, but my voice gets lost in the wind
She hides again and leaves me in the freezing dark
The bells of wither echo...
The gates have opened
Enchanted I tread into the land of wilt
Wither with me! Rest in the snow…
A faint light wakes me, lures me back from slumber
My numb skin touched by the veil of Luna…
Caressed by the Lunar veil
Mists wrapped ‘round my being
Reaching out through this vivid dream, yearning for Her presence
Brought back from the edge of eternity...
but I still can not reach thee...
...but the mist rises
and I’m no longer embraced
...a faint shimmer, enters my eyes…
Finally I can reach, beyond the dimness…
My Empress turns and beckons me closer as She proceeds
into the dark again but something’s holding me back!
Withered roots hold me shackled...

Vague Skin
04:09
|
|||
|
Disheartened, burdened with a wish:
to lose myself in stellar mists...
‘Cause I’ve kept forgetting, yes I’m losing words and time
Lo(o)ser thoughts, blurred sight
A mind benighted, so vague…
I’m growing colder
It’s as if each year my veins are narrowing
Fingers stale and limbs itching
Skin that’s a pale and purplish grey
My contours are fading
Hands fumbling, but there’s nothing there to grasp
...and the darkness is thickening
I can even feel my mind slip away
slipping into the nothingness…
and I ask myself, i..is .. is this purity…?

Stellar Neglection
08:04
|
|||
|
Pale… losing touch of the world through astral rejection
Cold filling my voided shell
Crystalizing breaths, but I’ve always been fond of the frost...
Now my veins are fading
I searched enlightenment in lunacy but became benighted...
Astral neglection
I’ve wished to lose myself, yearned for stellar mists to cleanse me
Stellar neglection
Forlorn
I can feel my breaths weaken
Fettered in my own form I lie down
longing for the crystals I’ve inhaled to spread within me
Winter within me…
Fjättrad
Fast, som gjuten i sinnets sankmark
...jordens levrade sår
Fördärvad ser jag på medan älvorna dansar bort från mig
Bort mot det vakuum jag trånar efter
Jag har länge önskat att förloras i stjärndimman
Upplyst av Luna, i mina majestätiska skendrömmar
Men de är förgångna och imman på mina hjärnfönster räcker inte till
Jag vill ge upp
Jag vill känna isen i mina ådror

Frazil Veins
09:41
|
|||
|
Violent nothingness
Voided heart, voided mind
Growing ever colder as frazil run through my veins
Fading away from sight
A flickering oblivion
Trapped in the night
Sight shrouded in darkness, non-seeing!
I can feel the black aura embrace my being
and it’s been years since my essence left with a ghostal breath
Leaving me with a soothing pain and envenomed brain
It's been years since my essence left with a ghostal breath...
Wither with me…
Wither with me...
Wither with me...
Wither with me!
Moonsick, envenomed by the shimmering Empress Luna…
But Earth’s sprawling fingers ease their grip and I flee
Crawling along the spine of worlds
Numbed by the blistering cold I lie down, eyes towards the sky
and I realize that I have to let myself slip into the final slumber...

Lunar Empress
13:18
|
|||
|
Beyond the elapsed perception of time a vague, luminous form is forged
A wary but vivid flicker surrounds me
My first entrance into lucidity
A dreamlike state
All my heart’s worries slowly drowning
Swallowed by the oscillating colours
A first entrance into the illusory lucidity
The edges are blurring, slowly crawling closer to me
The colours are slowly drained...
My final dream is fading
Shrinking, swirling
I fix my blackened sight on a vague shadow as I enter nothingness...
Dwelling in darkness, my contours faded...
The final retreat from life
Dissolvement of all thoughts...
But beyond my slumber the shadow brightens and pierces my sight
Luna... unveiled, returned!
I reach out beyond my being, yearning for her presence
Empress of Night, retrieve me!
Empress, retrieve me!
...but the clouds enveil Her and I’m left to be one with Nihil
