Life’s
love, mated souls,
When
last I held her, eternal bliss,
Gone
from me, forcibly took,
Angered
was I, fearful, and shook,
Five
millennia hath I sought,
Roaming
from this life to that, anguished thought,
Battles
fought, pierced I did bleed,
But
ne’er give up my beautiful reprieve,
Followed
her did I, trudging through one life to the next,
Always
missing her, always too late,
Worlds
apart, gone so long, so alone,
Cold,
ever mourning, sadness, ever in woe,
Five
hundred decades, weeping in silence,
Raven’s
call, echoing within a desolate soul,
Loneliness
consuming, no one to truly hear,
No
one to understand but her, out there, somewhere,
So
many times falsely found,
Not
her but another, ever the baited clown,
Ever
screaming out in pain, “Please let her see,
Gods,
please show her to me.”
A hundred
lifetimes past, Fates’ jest sickens,
Finally
my sword do I layeth down in sadness,
Take
to yet another wrong love, swift to catch my eye,
Though
her beauty is unmatched, she may never ease my madness,
But
as I lay in her arms for the very first time,
And
our souls gently touch, and I gaze into her eyes,
I
melt and weep, …because my heart suddenly gasps,
“Oh
my god... I have found her! I found her at last!”
