Nyyark Posted February 3, 2002 Report Posted February 3, 2002 Deep and dark is the roost of Nyyark, The Tower of Nythtyrdal. Jet black jewels jet about the grooves, Carved into the tower walls. Lovely crows, the only friends he knows, That will abide in his halls. Oh Nyyark, Nyyark, you died your hair black. Nyyark, Nyyark, you're to blame for that. Nyyark, Nyyark, your eyes are not grey, that's only the color they see everyday. A sitting stone, atop an icy throne, His face as cold as the grave. To him light is as black as night, Life a perpetual cave. Freedom's not sought, for himself he's caught, Can't even tell he's away. Oh Nyyark, Nyyark, you died your hair black. Nyyark, Nyyark, you're to blame for that. Nyyark, Nyyark, your eyes are not grey, that's only the color they see everyday. Gifted with size, Crow sits at his side, Watching his lines blurring. Watching with worry, hoping uncertainly, That he will be returning. It is in vain, apathy easier than pain, and Nyyark's soul is burning. Oh Nyyark, Nyyark, you set your own trap. Nyyark, Nyyark, you hid your own map. Nyyark, Nyyark, why do you stay, You're the guardian keeping you at bay. Every day he seeps away, Starving away his yearning. A gnawing hole, it eats a his soul, Icy fire consuming. Hour by hour, in his secluded tower, Comfortably dying. Oh Nyyark, Nyyark, you died your hair black. Nyyark, Nyyark, you're to blame for that. Nyyark, Nyyark, your eyes are not grey, that's only the color they see everyday. -Nyyark, Page of the Pen, Keeper of Crows
Gyrfalcon Posted February 3, 2002 Report Posted February 3, 2002 *Gyr applauds* Pretty interesting, though I sort of wonder *why* your soul is burning. And it does run song-like to me... go Nyyark!
