Haunted by dreams throughout the night, Echoing voices fill the room. As the sun travels across the sky the gods force me to wait Is this the lesson of patience, Is this the test? Though my heart is heavy & my mind races I hear the voice, “Be still, patience. If you long for revenge cast upon us. Justice is swift and true. Be still.” I make my offerings to Odin seeking wisdom and protection for me I offer to Baldur to watch over my love. To Vali I ask for vengeance against the one who harmed her. Haunted by the echoed voices of the many. Rage fills my soul and yet here I stay, Still.
