Fading Whispers

The sadness of our thoughts

an unrecognizable pain

it surges through our blood

twice now has the conclusion eluded us

no longer will we wait

every step taken, is taken earnestly

for the world doesn't wait for us

and we have no patience for the world.

 

Erratic decisions bring grand adventures

this adventure will be the grandest yet

filled with love and loss

but no loss as great as what's to come

the loss of hope and strength.

 

These perilous times call for you to trust more than ever

we'll break the bonds of our captors

and relinquish our fears

in the end we'll fall victim to the same fate.

 

Time's our last enemy 

an unconquered foe

untamed and wild

like the wind that blows and howls

wearing down our skin to dust

rest now, sleep.

 

Just remember our last actions

desperate to live

and living to die

we held the kingdom for just a short time

the kingdom of life 

now forfeit, as we say good bye.
