fog palace

Beyond the candles burning, I sea past you To the astral ocean rising in high tide My face is a river, water from a thousand tears floats in streams Shivering through the shallow haze Strangers explored the crypts Turning the esoteric gifts I possess Into mania at the portal to the shrine Here where the days were nights and the nights were magic With their throne in these shadowhalls The sky is a lonely place, an endless consuming space Taking me astray into the moonlight above these shores I watch the feathers like Snow in the Winter Seen yet impossible to gaze through Mist and dust were now in this deathsleep cavern The dreams and wonders slip through your fingers Absorbing me into cryogenic system Human Birds watch the sky Spirits marching in fields of mist Grim and bleak raised To the banks of the rivers at The edge of the forest by the fog palace
