The River

I found your heart today close to mine,
heartbeat in time with yours
one dancing as two.

The pain apart from life times lost
felt anew in the plucked chord
bound one another.

Last visions of passing bonding us,
In heat and snow with bitter loss
crossing time's song.

Lonely years and an empty heart
Dreams of memories call out!
Bid time return!

But empty march the years, agony keeping tempo
Darkness seeking its past dues
take me not!

Long shadows cast into morning dawn
Beneath the earth lying locked
your memory calls.

Gods and Fates mock mortals and fae
casting lovers back onto the stage
Love is undeniable.

Spin and pass, chase and run,
The moment arrives
"is it you?"

Yes, death deferred but not denied
None can pull apart the seal
Crafted by love.

For as long as the clock unwinds.
Strong as fae blood and hearts
Time's endless circle.
