Cimmerian

down
a dance
a dream
a thought
a vision

fight
a price
a pang
a dread
a moment

future
a light
a face
a gleam
a torture

seize
a twitch
a shame
a circle
a nightfall

cimmerian
cimmerian

tell me where the others are
take me to the edge of the world
find me in perpetuity
taken beyond the night

for my world is crisp and bright
and no darkness tarnishes my sight
you must have been mistaken
when in shadows you thought I rule

so go and find a place for us
a time of truth and thought
of dreams filtered through sunlight
and sunlit days of reverie

and I will live in peace there
pensive, musing and wise
distracted by the air and wind
the beauty of the light
