The prolonged wailing filled me with the night
Naught but death,then,seemed bright

What remained of the soul were bits and pieces
I, ready to be carried away by the breezes

A utopia awaited in my dreams
But not was the wailing allowing me to sleep

A dawn so pure and warm
And a world where only life was born

Where dreams fluttered and leaped to freedom
And one was a king of his kingdom

Where one could shatter life's shell
And be tranquilled by hell

As I pondered on my dreams
I noticed that the crying had ceased

A realization dawned me, a fear gripped me
And I cared naught about the agony

With the last breath left I opened my eyes
Trying to look beyond the darkness beside

I spotted her and watched her lying by
Still she was with no tears to cry

But I knew she had a breath left
And tormented by that sight my soul wept

I dragged my tattered body to the ethereal being
And I withstood the pain that had been

I looked at the calmness now at her face
Her divinity I could only embrace

The vibrance she radiated
And the peace that in me she created

I clasped my hands around her
And in my eyes reflected her's

And staring into the stillness that had drawn
The night devouring us, we waited for a new life, a new dawn.
