Awaken … MAG
The rain falls on this gloomy day
 15 days in the month or two before May
 Gloomy, say I because you didn't say
 A single word for many a day
 
 Why is this? Did he say something that bad
 Or is he that worthless; deserve I not feeling sad?
 Every moment which passes drives him mad!
 For goodness sake, have mercy on this lad!
 
 This young lad of 17, whom you drive insane
 Who considers you a gift; what his family considers a bane
 For he's fallen for a beauty with the black sky so wide, flowing her mane
 Answer his call, make him sane
 
 For the longer you hold peace
 The moments that pass make him think that you tease …
 Tease him; in a way, to insanity … please
 Give him his mind back and put him at ease
 
 What did he do? Beside that obvious mistake
 What did he do? What did it take
 To silence you so much and make
 You act so? Take …
 
 Take this, fair maiden, as his last and final call
 He means this very much, much more than all
 His previous pleas. For this time … the order is very tall
 On your decision stands his future; his rise or his fall
 
 Call … hmph; rather his final plea
 For, to him, you're his all … his glee
 Without you … well, he's not gonna flee
 To some distant land to which the usual losers flee
 
 He will stay here and go on striving
 Through thunder and rain, he'll go on driving
 But like this rain which falls, his heart will be crying
 Crying … crying … slowly dying … but still crying …
 
 Arise from thy slumber, dear maiden … awake
 And from this ditch, pull him out and take
 Him; not to paradise, but back to earth and make
 Him whole; lest his dreams in ashes you must take …
 
 To
 Mysterious Maiden
 Body with lavender laden
 c/o Ms. Queen Ice
 Door No. 1, middle of paradise.
