On these dark days and endless nights I turn away My many faces From your gaze A thousand names have not yet captured My meaning, and still I turn anew, phase Another face Towards your unseeing eyes Only to be unseen once more Turning darkness into light And light to dark Giving birth to life And dying a death
Ignore me at your peril For I have always been Toying leaves to fall Leaving trees Standing, baring all This is the time For moonshine And starry nights Against a backdrop of cold Creatures comforting Souls deep underground Close to my beating heart Drawing in breath after breath Slow and slower still Slowing down Descending Into darker sounds
As the world around you Empties of glittering gold Dandelion, daffodil Buttercup and yellow rose Sweet kisses sent to earth Mirroring the sun’s glow But no more As the world empties of soft light Now but a distant memory Warmer times replaced by harsh heavenly Skies pierced with diamond eyes As all that you once knew of love falls Into extremities My cloak wraps tightly Surrounding you in ceremony
These dark days and endless nights I wear a mask to hide my face For to look upon the crone Will have you drown in currents unknown Yet if you are wild enough to enter My womb, my tomb, my cave of transformation I will take you into crackling fire Sit next to you upon hearthstone Guide you on how to embrace death So that you may live truly for one more breath.
