The Tether of Life

By A Dispelled Truth

Cold Blows on Winter Souls.
On Scrolls of Gold in Scriptures Told.

Below the Holes Where Wise Men Know.
The Horrors Banished Demons Sow.

Etched Beyond Graves So Old.
To Lands of Which No Brave Man Go.

Tales of Woe that Memories Stow.
Below the Holes Where Wise Men Know.
