She improved one month
Fingers turned human
I sealed the world away
Wrote in my journal
Then everything stalled
She grew pale once more
No more waking moments
Pyres burned beyond the window
Winter would not end
Her skin turned grey
For you I'll trade my soul, for you I'll walk through hell
Cerno's shadow at the door, but Mirka you'll be well
One last touch of your cold hand, one last kiss on death's disguise
I'm leaving holy ground tonight to pay the devil's price
For you
Cerno arrived with her father
Both stood silent and bowed
New scars marked his face
I rose from her bedside
One final prayer
One final touch of her hand
Her breath barely there
I told him to lead me away
For you I'll trade my soul, for you I'll walk through hell
Cerno's shadow at the door, but Mirka you'll be well
One last touch of your cold hand, one last kiss on death's disguise
I'm leaving holy ground tonight
God forgive me
I'll see you on the other side
