Grief Divine

Out of shaded halls of stone
In dreadful silence
Limping footsteps moving on
Towards the light of day

Hopeful gleams relight
Your heart across dark waters
From the realm of death depart

Flee from this accursed scene
In solitary pathways
As the black leaves turn to green

Could this be a dream
Or death played tricks on me
What if my dear one
Could never follow me?

A flitting peek could never hurt
As I walk alone
Turn my head, she's there, all pale
Her fading shadow's gone

In a moment's glimpse, he longed to see infinity
In the transient light, turn in grief divine
Yet your eyes shall meet in agony
But instantly, as you turn to gaze, vanished in a mist

Lost again without farewell
In mindless torment
Sweapt away in tears she fell

Reflecting on her glossy eyes
Her face forever haunts me
Fallen under starless skies

Fate again reveals this chaos in my mind
Left alone in doubt as where her soul to find

A flitting peek could never hurt
As I walk alone
Turn my head, she's there, all pale
Her fading shadow's gone

In a moment's glimpse, he longed to see infinity
In the transient light, turn in grief divine

In a moment's glimpse, he longed to see infinity
In the transient light, turn in grief divine
Yet your eyes shall meet in agony
But instantly, as you turn to gaze, vanished in a mist
