Winter's Slumber

This eternal white as far as the eye can see
 Remnants of eras long forgotten
 Memories faded into the depths of mystery
 Can I recover them?
 I raise my head and breathe in deep
 Words of the old ones fall to me
 As snow on the mountain
 I know this is how it should be
 The long sleep of winter
 This eternal white as far as the eye can see
 Remnants of eras long forgotten
 Memories faded into the depths of mystery
 Can I recover them?
 I raise my head, so far I see
 Tranquillity...
 The lake of death
 Grasping the purity within
 Within
 I shall rise, if not for long
 To wither here in my final place of peace
 No better place to glare upon one last time
 I smile, I cry
 I blissfully let go
 The woods are lovely, dark and deep
 But I have promises to keep
 And miles to go before I sleep
 And miles to go before I sleep...
