The soul speaks only in whispers now
As it passes through the veil
Stay beyond the reach of death somehow
On your journey to prevail
To the cradle of Morpheus
The keeper of your dreams
Much like the journey of Orpheus
You traverse Hades streams
The soul creeps slowly through the gates
As it enters the world below
Stay beyond the eye of the all seeing fates
If back home you hope to go
To the cradle of Morpheus
The keeper of lost things
Much like the journey of Orpheus
Who played upon his strings
The soul silently to the cradle does sneak
As it peers at the sleeper within
Beyond the reach of the living world is what you seek
Climb in the cradle of Sleep and his twin
In the cradle of Morpheus
The keeper and his twin
Much like the story of Orpheus
You may not win
The soul climbs in and is filled with fear
As it hears that silent breath
Beyond the veil these twins draw near
In the cradle you will find Sleep and his brother Death
In the cradle of Morpheus
The keeper of lost life
Much like the story Orpheus
The man who lost his wife
Morpheus and Thanatos are two twin deity in Greek myth presiding over sleep and death respectively. Often in art they are confused with Eros due all three having wings
