Snowbound

"Snowbound" Lyrics by Wandering Oak

I – Tempest

Cry of despair on frozen wind

Head raised to the sky

Grey of November dies, consumed

River of tears frozen, run dry

Tempest of winter’s coming in naked December

Scattered birch, slaughtered earth

Sing your sorrow-song of slumber

I remember

Snow-forsaken, I weep for Spring’s return

Hidden light – imprisoned sight

Misdeeds of the past, poisoning me

For countless days, I do yearn

Dreams are cloaked in early night

Crystal veil of lament

Winter air’s frigid kiss

Forewarning breath

Swat not, never yield

Stand fast in its wake

Sway not, rise again

Lest this frozen heart break

II – Snow-Forsaken

Silence – imperceivable symphony, ornate cascade

Home and heart lain entwined (Cursed shadow-life)

Wisp of weighted sigh vanish into nil

Sufferer’s serenade – aether trill

Tempest returns – carried weight

Blanket of night, powdered cemetery

Countless are the days I have dwindled

In the safe and warm of my inner hearth

The land, the fire of the heart

As it shifts, so we shift with it

Few dare tread here, yet I dare

Bid thee ware, I dare

Light – what light! Glorious phosphenes

Light – oh what light! Victorious sunbeams

I drowned such sorrows on sweet nectar

Clouded dismay in smoke

Blackest cloud of alabaster

Sun reflected on hallowed snow

Purest beauty insulating the heart

Invigoration – the cold issues a challenge

Pale Fire, the zenith visage

Atop the golden peak

Opaque mirror aglow

In the apex of solar death

See the green horizon

As sun is lain low

III – Cold Streams

A strange break in the clouds

Not quite the sun

Cold streams flow, bird-songs abound

The spirit thaws with the land

Betwixt wake and sleep

Drudgery in remission

Sun and moon on equal footing

Cyclical vision remains
