When she was born
The clouds had parted
The heavens had poured
Not tears of joy, not of sorrow
Tears of fear
For the freedom was gone
She would not know
How much they scare
The empress she was
From a lion’s lair
Power blossomed when her fingers rolled
Charm floated but her eyes were cold
The roar like a thunder
When Ah! She sighed
All along
I was by her side
I watched her prey
And I watched her pray
I stayed by her side
And I watched her pain
The candle had blown
Though the wind was gone
It was her will
She lay so still
My life in my arms
The life I had lost
I could feel the beat
I could hear her breathe
Though the shadows were old
We were not cold
The fear was gone
When she came home
