Frostmoon Eclipse

1. Rustworn

A lightless room is my guide for today
I am blind - I am numb, and look for your hand
This place has never been this silent before
This house has never been
Never been this cold before

I thought that nights could not last so long
Where did all the morning birds go?
Just the sound of rain is all I have now
And a farewell I mumbled alone
In a sanctuary I used to call home
As I enter the coldest of dawns

Rustworn shutters
Give the shelter of darkness
It’s all quiet now
And colder still


2. Relentless, Circling

In the heat of June you came
As a vulture, relentless, circling
Sent a message to my doorstep
“Do not take it for granted”

But what if in the end I did?
Got eaten again by useless wishes
As you were supposed to leave
For some kind of birthright of mine

I lay below this stone
Where you have set your throne

Should have known better than this
When you first showed up your wings
Should have closed the door and known
There’s no path to claim as my own

Feels like in distant past
And it echoes forever
I still look back again
For ways I could not find
