The Nightjar and The Souljar
Lyric Poem - Collection 1 of 4
The Nightjar and the Souljar
Slumber on the hearth of twilight.
A silent shadow stretches forth a hand
touching the soul within.
Awake! Awake!
The world shudders and quakes.
Shattered pieces like stars cross the ky.
Alone! Alone!
A single blaze goes speeding, searching for its mate.
The Nightjar and Souljar, no longer bound by fate.
Dawn bursting through shrouds of darkness,
The sleeper, now awake.
Tears flowing freely across time;
healing the shattered pieces.
A home her soul to make.
The Nightjar and the Souljar
one lost and alone upon the void, his mate
waiting on the horizon of time
in the home she made.
