Broken: By Land
Wearied by blood and thunder
Primed by the fall and rise
Tortured by restless wonder
And taught by the long unwise
The gateway doffs her cloak of night
For master’s harrowed aid
Awash in dreams of bloodied sight
And driven towards the bloody fight
Abandons the guarded shade
Broken by land asunder
Sundered by love astray
Rousing the fallen plunder
The gate makes for timeless way.
