Our names were written in the stone
of an eternal life
that could never be undone,
and could never be forgotten.
An old legend of knights and witches
trying to discover a secret for
eternal youth and unrelenting power.
I wanted to find it to save us,
while you wanted to find it
to save yourself.
I’ll never forget the look in your eyes
when I had betrayed you so suddenly.
Depression consumed you,
just wanting to feel something,
anything other than the hurt
I brought upon you.
Frozen in time,
trying to forget the past
and all the mistakes we made
before we met.
Before we fell in love.
But I couldn’t forget you
as quickly as you forgot me.
Holding the silver sword in one hand,
I opened the other,
ready to lead you back to yourself.
No matter how long it takes,
how many decades pass,
how many souls are lost,
I will wait for you.
And we will fall in love again.
Just as destiny intended it.
