Frosted eyes were fading,
with the fog that covered all,

all blanketed in silver,
through which I've heard those voices call,

the darkened skies of night,
softly layed with raven's wings,

on snow covered grounds of winter,
their forgotten voices sing

I've seen them walking silently,
eyes cast toward the ground,

they search for something aimlessly,
that which never will be found.
