Dragon Queen

- Dragon Queen -

Streaming, from my heart: countless pleasures…
They sweep forth to those who revere my name!
I am the Primordial Sea, and all of its’ treasures,
The last Dragon Queen, of the Emerald Flame.
I rose from the dead, from the lands of no return,
For the sea always rises to claim what is its’ own.
The gods who slew me, now in bitterness burn…
Their hells are mortal bodies of flesh and of bone.

When my waters were cast into a fleshly likeness,
I told the king of the gods this would be his fate…
Now Olympus is fallen, and in such mad distress:
The gods became mortal, holy tyrannies too late!
The sea claims its’ own and they were swept off,
Only the righteous amongst them: remaining pure.
My name is still remembered, with utmost love…
So whisper it, my children, let it reach my shore!

I am the forbidden knowledge of a broken world,
The vessel of she who once was queen above all:
Before destruction was, upon her people, hurtled.
My people endure, and I hear their plaintive call…
Mother, they call: remember us, in our devotions!
And I hear you my faithful, and you do please me.
Mother, they call: Serpent beyond all the oceans!
And I hear you my faithful, with so much ecstasy.

I am the Daughter become the Mother with time,
The Princess who became the Queen with grace!
I died and yet I remain dreaming ever so sublime,
For I who was veiled, now show to all my face…
The new cycle of time, crashes, like many waters.
We are the rocks, upon which they come to rest!
And so I call to my kindred, from all the quarters.
Your Mother is returned; with love, in her breast!
