Chronicles of a Modern Pict
Orion's Sword
Fire and ice
Quake and storm,
These chains ensnare
A heart of gold
Upon northern peaks
A huntress waits
Her golden sword key
To an uncertain escape
As bonds compress,
To slow heart's beat
A spirit searches
For wild Artemis
In chivalry
The Knight must wait
To break the bonds
That hold his fate
A favor she bears
For this heart of gold
Perchance to wield
Orion's sword
A storm approaches
in darkness pall
Will his heart be frozen
Or will his chains fall
She calls the moon
with glinting sword
a reply...tis time to choose
To fight or fall
The Trickster leaps
Her voice is strong
I will save this heart
For in this deed I long
Through word and act
And passion strong
She raises her sword
To right the wrong
Once, twice, thrice
The chains will not yield
Yet her force persists
In warrior's zeal
At heart's last beat
He calls forth his strength
Together, their love
In spiritual embrace
They smite the chains
And melt the ice
In Phoenix fire
Their hearts unite
