The Serpent and the Black Lake - Mael Mórdha

A vast dark expanse

Of cold silent wave

Stretches between us

Bleak and miserable

-It mocks Me

-It taunts Me

Reminding Me of My failure

Away you stand

Far from Me

Alone, on a barren mount

Fearful and majestic

Your head white

As the snow which rests on the grass

Dark crevasses carved deep

Run cold with icy tears

Fallen from Heaven

When will we be one?

You stay silent yet beacon to me

Unable to resist I follow

Leaving Me behind

The waters rise cold

And attempt to drown Me

But I care not

Further I wade into the gloom

I awake too late

A serpent black and terrifying

Swallows me in His fierce jaws

As we both sink in screaming waters

Of eternal torture

And endless suffering
