Beneath the cover of night

The churchyard stirs a dream

Winter, a cold opus opposed

Against my snowbound hand

Denial, freezing

My tainted soul withers

Striking pain

From this life of agony

So sweet that which empowers

The soul when light draws low

Empty all that weep

Into the lake of sorrow

Beseeching in faith

Distant tunnel lights

Redemption, recovery

From this life of agony

I walk

I breathe every lovers final distressful words

And I see every dusk and dawn that they foretold

I walked an old path for the last time

Then blown away like candlelight

Forgotten like snow that had once enrobed a death

All life gone
