Northern Star
By Keelin Forsythe
Date: 01/12/12
Pairing: Xena/Gabrielle
By the light of my Northern Star,
I traveled near and far
Across the valleys and through the woods,
to a place of pain and scars
Inside my soul I rail,
with a wrenching and powerful wail
The woman I love is gone to dust,
her beauty and power could not prevail
So here I lay, forsaking the day
when ever we first did meet
Her soul was mine, a soul so fine,
yet death has stolen her away
By the light of my Northern Star,
I traveled near and far
Though once inseparable, time incomparable
has rent and torn us apart
Come back, my Warrior Princess
Come back, O love of my life
My days are empty without you
My nights are a battle with strife
Come back, my Warrior Princess
Come back, O love of my life
My star, it dims, it ebbs away
The sky will be dark tonight...
