Windwards - Netherbird

The fire seemed forgotten

Though embers always glowed

As winds sang my name

I’ve always felt I had to go

Where elders walked before me

Beyond the realm of snow

To a place my heart is longing

I was born a windward soul

Beyond lands of shadows

To where the rivers meet raging seas

Beyond the trees and meadows

The vast has called for me

Windward spirit

Imperial state of mind

The wayward walker

Leaving the grasp of time

Windward spirits

Above the seas and fields

The wayward walkers

Ferocious we leave

Wanderlust

Waywards, windwards

Forever onwards

To leave what’s familiar

Where dust has set on idle stone

Go and find your ocean

In the black unknown

Windward spirit

Imperial state of mind

The wayward walker

Leaving the grasp of time

Windward spirits

Above the seas and fields

The wayward walkers

Ferocious we leave

Come feel what they couldn’t feel

And see what they couldn’t see

Old truths are only beliefs

Become what they could never be

So rise from every fall

Facing the wind, my wayward one

Be true, scarred and strong

I know your journey’s just begun
