[QUOTE="Bhryn, post: 3058037, member: 36462"] [b]Rebirth of the Broken Something[/b] [SIZE=2][FONT=Arial Narrow][COLOR=Indigo][CENTER]Of angels waking, hearts defending Of all the ills and ails proclaiming The feeling soft and heart so pure In chest of love, that in death, endure; The maiden white, the maiden bright Alas the maiden falls into night. She dreams of you in the distance Speaking softly in your gentle whispers That only she can hear and understand; Across the fair and weathered land, A grave in passing, grave forsaken 'No' wished the soul of the maiden, 'Tell me please, you are mistaken.' The Gods replied, 'Sadly, he is taken.' So gather together what you will What sticks or stones or broken tools; Maybe the fairest of the fair you pick Or choose the damned most among fools But gather them close and into your heart For the journey is long, the journey is long. Give them no secrets but tell no lies, Poor maiden, your journey is forever long The pain, the pity, the fatal blow The aching soul to know such woe Betrayed by love and love to know, From fatal feelings such things grow; Forsake him not, in his darkest hour No matter what ills he might achieve; Forsake her not, forgotten hero, No matter what your heart may deceive. She fears the water, it lays a claim To bones and blood and body broken; 'So take this sacrificial offering,' she says 'It isn't much, a simple token.' And leave behind the lives you changed, The loves you made, the ties that bind, The friendship you thought you'd never find Flee into the darkness of the purest mind. Into water, you must go, you must go And sink, and float, and fly away; An angel falling down into the dirt Or fading like tomorrow, into today. If feathers fall from her pearly wings, Then gather them up, to make her whole; The Maiden pure who travels this Planet With cherished promises made in her soul. Another chance, from the water clean Raise again, a phoenix from your ashes; And once again, return to love, to live With war and strife and all that clashes! The Earth so pure, the Cloud so free, Float them far away, where they can be; Where the sleeping demon can tell no lie; With wings restored, take to the sky. - Bhryn'o'vyl[/CENTER][/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
