Hel

Wandering through snow covered wildness
Into the clouds, along white pathways
Ice coated trees and freezing ridges
Through another forest alive and vital
Ageing trees whisper mythology
Freys craft halts at the gaping abyss
Yawning black anti-mass
Abstract plague
I've known total darkness and solitude
Braved the winter sea before sun rise
The sun rising while the stars are bright and the moon is full
The sky blazes red while pitched black, blended with blue and green
Encountered that which was unknown within
Knowing not what had been discovered
Bellowing curses at the gods was foolish
As I drowned without gold for Ran
At the depths of my own hel, Tired and frozen
Starved, empty, Cold memories and no future
No longer tempted by poison
To suppress desire for life, an elusive dream
Banished to despair in the depths of my own hel
Where Balder speaks to me
And when I understand, what he has to say
I awaken
With knowledge of what is good for my kind
Inspiration and wisdom
I speak and act relevance
For glory for Odhin
