The Askance Chapter 4 Part 4c
As we began our ways with Alkaiya in my arms
I knew I was walking towards an awakening reality
And with the undesired reality to come undone
I started to wonder if there ever will be another tranquility?
The paths ahead only promises to be deadlier still
Is destiny to predetermine the succession of either’s supremacy?
Both The Word and The Void, The war between the unreal
Am I really the cause to affect the balance of total ultimacy?
Yet… all that matters now, is the life of Alkaiya
Her infirmly life where only I can perhaps ensave or let die?
And with my unsleeping self, the distance to be is as yet afar
Am I always to despair in reality with a heavy sigh?
Consumed by my own wrath, I see to the day’s passing
Envisioning the impossible, knowing not the unprecedented fate
And of love, uncalled for in any sacrificial asking
Is there a dream… a one earnest dream to rightfully await?
With Alkaiya, its of love to whence outlast
A love pure and unkind, unknown and anew
With Ei-rian, its of love to belong the past
A love impure but kind, a memory left be sealed
It is not of my choosing to unfold the hidden night
I cannot know what seem destined as Knight of the Word
Yet gratefully, my hours of dark is not without light
To have The Askance to aid me through paths unheard
