This heartbreak was an incantation,
Rumor and influence and imitation.
Malevolent power channeled through,
Assumptions and lies deftly hewn.
Harsh runes gouged into bedrock,
Strong shoulders disfigured by stony bulk.
Fault lines grinding thoughts to dust,
Eldritch-enspelled entropy engraving rust.
Mortally wounded by arrival unreported,
Time and space... by distance distorted.
Lost and found, wreckage on stormy sea,
Seeking our love, stolen in infancy.

Eldritch-enspelled entropy engraving rust.
Mortally wounded by arrival unreported,

Lost and found, wreckage on stormy sea,
Seeking our love, stolen in infancy.
