Bones Beneath the Snow

the snows came early
and did not leave
the hearths grew cold
and the doors hung open
the wolves no longer waited for night
they fed in the nakedness of daylight
and the living slept beside the dead
and the stars drowned in a glass of smoke
hunger took language
as each swallowed his tongue
and choked on words unspoken
and fell into muteness
a people lost to silence
their breath gathered upon
the ceiling of the world
and fell again as snow
the wolves no longer waited for night
they fed in the nakedness of daylight
and the living slept beside the dead
and the stars drowned in a glass of smoke
a people lost forever to silence
bones beneath the snow

Yoke of Oblivion

we are born with it
it grows into the shoulders
a burden without shape
older than the soil
the beasts drag it in anguish
the rivers carve it hollow
even the mountains stoop
beneath its unseen hand
there is no peace
only the stillness
when the bearer is gone
and the yoke remains
it gnaws the edge of being
it hews the living marrow
it binds all breath to dust
it turns the heart to labor
it bends the spirit downward
it presses bone to powder
it knows no master
and ends as it began
there is no peace
only the stillness
when the bearer is gone
and the yoke remains
there is no peace
only the stillness
when the bearer is gone
and the yoke remains

the light withdraws into itself
and leaves no trace of what it touched
the years drift through me
like dust through an empty hall
every sound arrives without meaning
voices fade before they’re spoken
sorrowful tides crawl up the shore
bearing no reflection on the silver waters
in the human heart
a pale disc hangs, thinning
she gnaws at her own edge
a god too proud to beg
i fed her once with wonder
my gift sank beneath her gaze
untouched by dawn or dream
and now I have no offering
the trees lean toward the shadows
no flame recalls the hand that reached
the moon — she does not answer
and I no longer ask

This is so raw, honest and powerful. It's everything I look for when I listen to music. So glad I saw Blackbraid at Hellfest (by chance, as I was walking by). Been listening ever since.
