Aicassë from Aicassë by Caradhras

Up is the way we fall
The peak, the end of all.
We've only got one chance,
Before the weather turns.

Plant your flags on this slice of rock
And turn your eyes to the stars above.

This view was never meant to last
So savor this breath, before we're forced to flee
This is the sound of stone.

Lost, off the path, left not right
Above a tempest of white and gray
Your body can't last a second longer
So rest, feel the warmth inside
Feel the warm from within

No more feeling, no more doubt
No more waiting for a rotting sun to set on your life

Instead you reach toward terminal lucidity.

I am nothing, I am play, I am freedom, I am life.
I am nothing, I am play,
I am freedom, I am life.
I am the boundary.
I am the peak.
