| The Mountain Before, my life was full Of music, light and colour, Radiant with golden Song. Then, the mountain came. It filled the sky, casting The world into deep shadow. I ran from it, searching For the land of light and Song, But found only a twilight Of fear and pain. I wandered there, until I could stand it no more. I chose. I gave up the memory of light, And turned towards the mountain. I walked, Deep in to the black shadows Gathered at its base. There, I discovered The blessing of darkness; What you can not see, You can not fear; What you do not have, You can not lose. I embraced the dark peace The mountain offered, And built a shrine on its slopes. I sing to you, now, Mountain of shadows, Lord of the dark. I sing to you, my death. |
