Stone Gazed

The memory makes me shiver
the memory of my people persecuted
by this alluring creature
the beginning of my journey

encounter with my destiny
as blazes of eyes made me
her silent slave

echoes of my past life
are reflected in this cold stone
but cannot seal my thoughts

time passes slowly, the body lies still
but my lucid mind still runs

monolith on which my story is engraved
a warning for all, symbol of terror

courage is not enough
to bear this slow torture

life in death - stone I am
dust I shall never be

my jail shows me the way towards eternity
awaiting the scythe that never will come

come, come, black goddess, I await for thee
remove all that's remained of this agony

echoes of my past life
are reflected in this cold stone
but cannot seal my thoughts

my jail shows me the way towards eternity
awaiting the scythe that never will come

come, come, black goddess, I await for thee
remove all that's remained of this agony

time passes slowly
the body lies still
but my lucid mind still runs
The memory makes me shiver
The memory of the first time I saw
this alluring creature
she gazed, I turned to stone
