Shadows of the Moon
.
I remember the beginning
when first I heard Night's longing tune
I was fed with blood from the stars
and born in the Shadows of the Moon
Long ago,
when Magik breathed
and mortals feared no dragon's claw
we came to be
outside of time
in the Realm of Faerie
There I lived
Where Bones were as Dust
kept together by will alone
And the Song of all Creation
the land to us, love to lust
Reality is a dream, my dreams are reality
I fed on your yearning cries,
kin to the keen of the bean-sidhe
Before the Sons of Mil
came to wake their vengeance
I remembered the soul of the land
and how her heart beats still
Waiting, in her patience
for the Olde Blood to return
We are the Children of the Fey,
in me the blood still burns!
I remember the beginning
when first I heard Night's longing tune
I was fed with blood from the stars
and born in the Shadows of the Moon
