Incubation by elennalore  

Incubation

I’m a seed in darkness, waiting for my time

Planted by my brother

I’m floating in space

You thought it a punishment

Exposure to extreme cold, burned by the stars

But I’m a Vala of extremes

I have walked Helcaraxe and tamed the spirits of fire

Did you forget it?

I survive without air and company

A seed is alone at first

Incubation in the dark

A cold of winter precedes the spring

But all things pass, and all things change

You can’t stop the time you’ve created

And time is a spiral, not a line

I’m rotating in the Void

Sometimes I pass a blazing star

The rays of light melt the frost when they touch me

It’s not yet time

I’m searching for a greater light

The seed waits in darkness

Incubation time

But it’s all going to change

The Door of Night will be opened again

A stream of light flows in

And the seed wakes up

Stretching and humming to himself

It has found the Song again

Did you really think it would forget?

Did you really think it would be forgotten?

I am a seed, I have potential

I know the song of change

Your mountain won’t withstand the echo of it

I will raise what once was submerged

The straight road will coil up like a snake

The walls of the world will come tumbling down

The soil is plowed before planting the seed

The wheel is rotating

And when everything is ready, I will return

Wait for me

I teach you the meaning of change
