In my exile, I have been visited by shadows that whisper to me
Beckoning me to join them
I have turned to my music to find solace and escape
By candle's light I write long into the blackest midnight hours
Bewitched by the somber beauty of darkness
The music opens a portal to the past
Summoning ghosts into the realm of the living
Take heed
Once the gateway has been opened, I fear it may never be closed
