Quell

temptress of my soul
sing me your sad, sorry song
and leave me
awash with fear, trembling
alone
as you travel through the haze
of tomorrows' fog
sinking in the quicksand
remember the light
remember forevers' promise
and hold me in your heart
and the melancholy sound
drifting out to sea
the last whimsical lilt
of your voice
carries me thrugh my dreams
wraps me in my destiny
and forever
i wait
to hear it once more
