Nattvindens Gråt

A Lonely October Night

Nattvindens Gråt


Once again left the rider 
With no clue where to do 
Helpless and frustrated 
He began to wander in woe 

He wandered here and where 
Without a place to go 
Nights fell and days damned 
Onwards he just rode 
The trees dropped their leaves 
Soon the first snow would fall 
A lonely rider was sleeping 
Beside the ancient stonewall 

"Behing the wall is a realm no man dares to go 
There thou find the answers... or not... 
Wise and old is the keeper of the stone 
The stone sees days - passed and to come" 

The rider heard the voice 
Whispering these words 
Where it came or who it was 
A delusion he had heard? 
Snowflakes drew a picture 
Right on his eyes 
A line of hills behind forest 
Where dusk colours the sky 

"Behing the wall is a realm no man dares to go 
There thou find the answers... or not... 
Wise and old is the keeper of the stone 
The stone sees days - passed and to come" 

When the sun appeared over the woods on the horizon 
The rider sat thinking was it a dream or real 
In a moment he mounted the horse, began to search 
For a gate to enter the unknown realm
