Foreboding Dreams
by Theudho· from The Silence
Dream of darkness,
Dream of death
Dream of darkness,
Slowly hastening its tread
Grim dreams torment me at night
Dreams in which I foresee my own death
No distinct memory remains
Of these things that haunt me in my sleep
Only visions of my own demise
Lurking in the shadows of my mind
"Fear not, my troubled son.
All things on this earth will pledge an oath
Never to harm you in any way;
No evil will ever cross your path"
Mounted on his eight-legged steed
Vegtamr rode to the depths of Niflhel
To resurrect a dead seeress
Who confirmed Balder's untimely death
Proclaiming the downfall of the world
Before sinking back into her grave
