Dark Feathers

Deep in corners of soul
Dark feathers of wings cover me to hold
Giving me home

Silence around plays me a song
Dwelling in a very first chord
Embrace to cover me from the world

You are a shadow of me
Shade of my mind
You are all darkness of me
And all my light
The moon and sun
Day and night
All circles of time
My nightmare and my dream

You are my shelter, my world
Velvet cover of midnight sky
Veil of pure silver starlight
First chord of eternal song

Dark feathers caress my heart
Gentle touch feels so soft
Upon the scars left by one beloved
Time and tide took away the saddest night

Darkness around me turned into the light
The shore of purest white
Where you walk forever by my side
