In caskets blown from crystal sand
I pass to you my wedding band
You hand to me your golden chain
And vow to kiss my cheek again
Unmoored and adrift
Queen without King
There is no hollow
Like an unworn ring
Beyond our walls we make our home
Find tacit peace with man and gnome
But deals and pacts do not replace
The months I spend without your grace
Full leagues bar our letters
I swallow the rage
There is no hollow
Like an unlettered page
We send out a scout, but at great cost
Adwr returns, the rest are lost
On bended knee, softly spoken
He tells of how our land is broken
To and from Arandar
Not a day to sojourn
There is no hollow
Like a silent return
I come to our house, I call out your name
Mirrors reflect me, the echoes the same
No singing is heard, no movement is seen
I smell only the scent of my darling Queen
The silence greets me
With teardrops of red
There is no hollow
Like a vacant bed
Upon a torn pillow
Nestled in down
There is no hollow
Like a headless crown
