Canticle 05:37
Canticle I reach for your hand, beyond the either, so that we may gather. Together to pollinate the earth, with our bones This melting frost gives way to life and death Hear the sound of the rain....this season has been far too long ...and though I loath this time of year...what a beautiful Winter it was.... Finally, the rain has come, to melt my pain Trickling, down my spine Slowly numbing, comforting A lullaby Sung by angels in the wind, a lullaby. let the skies rain down upon me, to cleanse me hear the sounds of the rain... its lullaby, sing your canticle a lullaby Take my hand, take my heart, take my life

Amber Skies: The Shadow Of My Becoming Nothing lasts forever, Dreaming my death once again Autumn winds are changing... and so are the leaves that fall Slowly dulled by time, broken and battered they lay ...The cold stretch of winter looming, dawning upon us, for I cannot face these long months alone. Damn this cold division, damn the very dirt that seeds me I have tainted all that what was once pure this fatal stain can never be erased beneath the billows I bare this curse, this inward stare, a gaze i cant forgive. alone I fall headlong into despair Ephemeral essence the hourglass whispers...now rest Take everything, from me and watch as I fade away like a waning moon in the throes of darkness these scars of old weeping through worlds of pain So, whilst I await my term all alone beneath the shallow nimbus of the Earth, I shall rot For it was my want...my want here, at worlds end, who will mourn the leaves that fell, [this bleakness my being] the autumn breeze, the ocean's smell? Ephemeral essence, the hourglass ....whispers in silence your time has passed In the twilight of my life... Im more detached as I Embrace the shadow of my becoming, I dream of you.... How I long for your warmth, your life, the color of green in bloom, and The smell of the morning dew. Pastel day awaken my life... and to end the oppression of winter this season of sorrow and gloom Nothing lasts forever, Dreaming my death once again Autumn winds are changing... and so are the leaves that fall Slowly dulled by time, broken and battered they lay ...The cold stretch of winter looming, dawning upon us. Hold on to me, don't let me fall down as I crawl, hold on to me, don't bring me down It begins...in a dream, and my loved ones are all left behind...once again I rise...above...From this soil dark and cold With Fear, I kneel Anxiously heeding the frost from my heels Frail, succumbed, Below me, I see the world Ive left behind again....once again Autumnal, Eternal

An Unfamiliar Embrace Stranded.... amongst this crashing reef. Distance separates. An unfamiliar embrace, haunting...longing only for you Ive dreamt a thousand dreams, but I sleep a dreamless sleep longing for you, bleeding for you I dreamt of you again, you've touched my face These tears I cry, belong to you. These tears I shed now belong only to you, and ohh how I suffer on without your touch. I am but a ghost in shared space, a crack upon your window pane. I cannot fall into this sadness... So I'll set you free My body aches .... with longing An unquenchable hurt Ive felt like no other. Sing with me love, under the night skies. Let your soul walk with me.... Gazing at start-light I still see you there. Sleepless nights lost in dreams. Is this how you've left me? why why? tell me..... laughing, cold misery Ohh, tell me... I believe! My body bleeds, I'm yearning An unquenchable pain We've had like no other Longing for you..... Bleeding for you..... ...For my beautiful wife Aly Robinson

Bury me In Silence Bury me in silence for you have no right to mourn Scatter roses upon me pretend to be forlorn Rain the earth upon me nail tight the coffin door Rend my bones to ashes forget whom you once adored. You shall not mourn for me. For me, My castle, immortal love Release me, from these burdens of woe and shame Bury me in silence for you've always failed to see the depths of your betrayal and your iniquity. Speak, bring rain to cleanse my soul Sleep, bring pain to cleanse..... I'll stay in your heart forever the object of your scorn let me rot unmoving beneath this cursed ground Mourn not for me, for this love was blessed nevermore, nevermore ....And though worms destroy this body yet from this grave shall I seek your blood This vengeance is my right to take invoking the wrath of a righteous flood Though my bones may turn to ashes This spirit lives on unrequited Wash away my tears with the falling rain, ohh console me This silence is Deafening, you've abandoned me Wash away my tears with the falling rain, inter our love Burned to ashes, ceremonies, my requiem ...And though worms destroy this body yet from this grave shall I seek your blood This vengeance is my right to take invoking the wrath of a righteous flood Wash away my tears with the falling rain, ohh console me This silence is Deafening, you've abandoned me Wash away my tears with the falling rain, inter our love Burned to ashes, ceremonies, my requiem Sleep, Bring pain to Cleanse me, dies ire, dies illa solvet saecum in favilla teste Deus cum sybille quantutus tremor est futurus quando iudex est venturus

A Beautiful Winter Her tiny fingers wave goodbye, and her tears crack the window pane. She needs me so, but I need her more ...and she will never know. My heart breaks every time we waves goodbye through the glass, your mountain of ice. Her tears crack the window pane. As we watch the storm inside grow ...our dreams our hearts covered in snow. My heart melts each time I see your face, covered in tears, chiseled on my heart your name I can't forget. You take away all my fears, breaking my heart, an icy storm. I don't know how to live without you near If I'd protect you from the storm, I'd hold you close if only in my heart The first thing you saw in this world was me and finally I opened my eyes The wavering shudder of a new heart pulled against mine with joy my tears ran down We shared our first breath I can't breathe without you now Don't leave me Don't leave me all alone For my beautiful daughter Winter Izabella Robinson

Sorrow and Certainty Hold on to the night, and mourn with me Too long have you suffered this toll. your guise of hope and love bereaved Forsaken and forlorn, let us weep and let us fall move on, but forever... recall That our God laughs as we make our plans And who will save our souls? Misery Mae....Misery mae behold, I was shapen in wickedness, and in sin hath my mother conceived me. cast me not away from thy presence...purge me.... thou shalt wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. turn thy face from my sins, and put me out of all my misdeeds. for i acknowledge my faults: and my sin is ever before me Give to us this day of mourning with sorrow and with certainty We pass on as stars and morning light this fragile presence....mended by fresh tears Save me, Save me This creaking of old flesh, Rattling sales, weathered and torn HERE Have mercy on me, misery laid upon my shoulder The leaves...Change...All AT Once Pale. tones, pound into dust against thee only have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight, that though mightiest be justified. in thy saying, and clear when thou art judged Clement, merciful one...judge not our sins, but what of our dreams what shall become? Clement, merciful one, judge not our sins...our deeds Have mercy on me oh God, after thy great goodness...come in from the rain...Leave your hope behind....Come in from the rain...I offer you the stars. Rest your weary head... "According to the multitude of thy mercies....do away with mine offenses....wash me thoroughly of my wickedness and cleanse me from my sins" "In eternity, where there is no time....nothing can grow, nothing can become, nothing changes....so death created time to grow the things that it would kill and you are reborn but into the same life, that you have always been born into" Clement, merciful one, judge not our sins, but what of our dreams, what shall become? Clement merciful one, just not our sins...our deeds Idols of stone, granite sculptures pray, great protector, shroud me from the light of day, your time will come....heroes who fall....with brevity Awakened by tears, How I wept within a dream, how ..I wish I ...could show you. It was so vivd, so real.

about

Shroud Of Bereavement Sandown, New Hampshire

Shroud of Bereavement's music is akin to attending a funeral for everyone you have ever loved. The Boston-based group achieves this moribund feeling by incorporating all the right musical elements: cellos, piano, violin, and dual female vocal harmonies layered on top of harsh death vocals, played at the pace of mile-long funeral procession.. ... more
