On Sanctum

[strongholdx]

How I wish I could visit that world
With its ancient tower tall.
And how I wish I could walk inside its striking gilded hall.
I would stand upon its walls, carved of great blue,
And look upon my homeland, thriving, living, true.


How I wish I could travel the lands,
At rest stops I would stay,
For that olden, dirty, grimy path
shows travelers the way.


How I wish I could walk
beneath the forest outside Rens,
And listen to the lonely wolves
Scramble to their dens.


How I wish I could dive, over Underdeep
And swim amongst the ocean fish
Until their twilight sleep.
I would tarry below the surface,
Rolling in the deep.
Just for a single moment,
To find, savor, keep.


How I wish I could visit O’holy Neverast
And climb inside her caverns, sprawling, endless, vast.
I would stand upon her walls, a testament of time,
and look upon her neighbors, sitting in their prime.


How I wish I could see Skyforge,
from its grand platinum stair,
And look upon its houses,
floating in the air.


Goodbye my sweet tower,
my city on the sea,
But please, ancient godly Zo
Hear my parting plea.


When I’m dead,
When I’m gone,
Lay me down to rest
And up until my final moment
You’ll have me at my best.
