Labyrinth of time...

Mine alone for now and ever more

(I'm all alone...)



...and I flew

above sepulchral monoliths,

nebulously dancing beneath the dew

(Of morning, in ye twilightland of old)

Abiding teardrops borne by thorns,

thine fragments I twine true

(In mourning, stream adorned in rage untold)



...flow adorned in rage untold

Eternal - forever - more

And they'll forever grow

and hold in heart what springs anew



From the shadowsglades unwitnessed

which light the flames

from deep within where we all grew

...Everlasting ember-glow



Labyrinth of Time,

in harmony confined



Thus the dark heat from

beyond the stars

engulfed a world of fear still robed in ice

A throne in fire dies...

Pulsating through the skies



He who wore the gown

shall drown the "Reich of tears" in cries

Enthroned in fire dies...

A kingdom's last demise



And I know...

The ardent hearth midst life and death

won't end my journey morrowless

(I won't laugh in mirth all sorrowless)



Come, fly afloat on a wave of emotions,

of crestfallen scorn

Oh, this my whirlwind of darkness

a tide I once lulled but alas now withdrawn



Now...hand in hand with sorrow

towards the still, perpetual seas

Into the tranquil depths of solitude

in bliss my spirit flees



Through the wind I will go

To my twilightland, alone

Where sanctuary is mine

Within my throneworld, my labyrinth of time



And he who is the God

of an infinite shape and faces,

ever weaving fates of life

upon the pattern of his traces

In the Golden Dawn of Winter

he'll stand risen from the night

in serenity all so
