From the Depths of Midnight's Soul

by FernWithy

------------------------------------

Born of the sun, I grew in fiery day,
The light around me always, friend and foe
A Master's orders ever to obey
But harshness softened by the gentle glow
Of loving heart, too pure to taint
A gentle, guiding hand to paint
my life in shades of wondrous brown and gold
And childhood demons, a soft, kind voice consoled
Yet far away in the night's endless blue
I felt you waiting, alone and cold
From the depth of midnight's soul, I called you

Born of the moon, in waters of the night
I reached out to my sister the sky
And grasped a star of glimmering white
It led my mind to gleaming towers high
And showed me worlds in worlds where all
was laid bare, left open for me to learn and call
my own. But even there inside my dream
I was haunted by the echo, the unattainable gleam --
Because far inside my heart, I always knew
That you waited somewhere in the dark for me
From the depth of midnight's soul I called you

Tested in fire, our hearts together bound
A fragile tie, but stronger now than death
Infinite love, with sacred glory crowned
One soul, one heart, one dream, one breath
But twisted fate cannot let love survive
And steals our happiest days ere they arrive
Our lush world turns to suffocating drought
In pain and rage, a confused, inchoate shout --
I fall back into the fire from which I grew.
As the flames consume, my heart screams out
From the depth of midnight's soul I call you

Tested in blood, at your side, I fight
I know your love in battle's maddened cry
And in the glances and caresses of the night
My soul holds yours in gentle bonds; we fly
into the paradise of worlds beyond above
The sweet and tender worlds created by your love
But paradise is swept in anger's flood
And ecstasy descends to pain and blood
I weep, even now, as hope is born anew
Among the ashes, a weak and fragile bud
From the depth of midnight's soul I call you

Alone in the void, when all is dark around me
I will see your face, so perfect in my mind
A jewel glimmering in the depths of midnight's sea
A reminder of the world of light I left behind
The one thing even endless darkness cannot take
My soul's secret, a deep-down dream that cannot wake
Just beyond my vision, beyond the reach of my eye,
It will hover in the shadow until hope's cry
Brings my vision at last around to true
And pulls me back to light I can't deny
From the depth of midnight's soul I'll call you

As the world at last around us is reborn
We will mend the hearts that long ago were torn
And fate's storms finally free us from pursuit
For lost years and darkness, together we will mourn --
From the depth of midnight's soul I'll call you
