I Wait For Days
My dearest Ray,
I have news that will bring calm to your troubled heart,
The storm that surrounds you and the faith of my White Crow
I see it, The Last Star
The New Found Land, Prized by our people
A night has never left me Breathless before
This Red Moon flares its pretty crimson aura as the fakes only mimic the true light
Mere Ashes at the end of a battle…
Dust settles as they take our homes while you are off
The Breaking Dawn attacked and slaughtered us one by one
This could possibly only Foreshadow our soon-to-be new struggle
But I know I must stay strong for all of them, for the new world, and for you
And So I arise from the rubble
I hold the eyes of a shaman
Blood falls but no longer does my spirit as I unchained my Beloved Beast
Behemoth, your time has come
The sounds of crows have never been so beautiful, the bones crunch like sticks
Mere bugs at the bottom of my feet
The search for survivors was grim
While we run to the frozen ocean, I count about 15 of the 70 live
Upon the Black Ice, we escaped to unknown grounds making do with what we had
And by that moment, I remembered what you told me
“Never stop pushing on, keep moving forward until your bones give out. I will be here waiting at the finish line for you…”
Thank you, thank you Ray
I will never forget what you have done for me
We will grow in numbers, stronger than you
We will become the ominous shadow, operate from the abyss
And so… We shall be called the Plague
Now is the Time Of The Witches
My green eyes shall watch over you, my White Crow always at your side
I wait for the day we meet again Ray, I miss you
Thank you for teaching this mute girl how to Speak
Teaching me how to lead us to a more promising future
Sincerely,
Emma Roxiola
