Gateways of Bereavement

I stand as I cry Mourning in the silent rain Death will light my burden Endless is my sorrow Gateways so dark All these years of dying Gone are dreams of velvet voices I am you, we were one Vast are fields I walk Where sorrow never dies The sky unites with the blackened rain Summon with my tears Now descend on winterwings My withering soul.. Let me die, Gateways of Bereavement A temple of guilt Falling deep Embraced in grief My withering soul Let me die Farewell life and all I died for Now my time is over on Earth Another journey has begun Alone I died, not praying for mercy Nor praying for salvation A lonely journey in a darkened dream Time has come to spread my wings Slow.... descending from the silent sky Death comes to take me away And from the gateways you hear my cry... .. I love you ...
