without embrace, I seek your solace
ashamed of death, I close my eyes
terror lies beyond the ridge
shadows warn of the night's revenge
a stormy haven is all we share
forgotten lies have come to bear
the grief of death can overcome
silently, we hope for tomorrow
the sea will claim one final play
a last burial will soon disappear
