The Way

I’ve journeyed far with you Through the skies Across the oceans blue With you I’d fly I’ve laughed and loved and cried You’ve braved my wrath You’re forever by my side On this my chosen path You showed me the way out When all I saw was dark You overcame your doubt My mate has made his mark I’ve lived and laughed and lied To save the land I love As those around me died Your face is what I dream of Now together we will face the end Of all our troubled care I’ll sacrifice myself to send My friends a better fare I’ve failed in everything that counts Let us not fail in this So into battle ride the mounts To ruin or to bliss

Seems almost like a perfect prelude to 'To Whatever End!' Intriguing! Thanks, Gershon

It was a prelude, of sorts. I wrote both these poems after finishing a book series that I'd become deeply invested in, and it became the basis for the poems. Glad you liked it! -Olivia
