SETH

WHERE ART THOU, SETH?

(June 14, 2020)

My soul knew you from the life we lived in the past

Until death separated our intertwined hands

But changing clothes will not erase what we had

It is not broken, the red string just curved and bent

Before my deep sleep, I have never said goodbye

Reborn in a new mansion, but in the same house

Alone while breathing in the ever-changing sky

In my dreams are the fragments of our exchanged vows

The forgotten kings and queens of yesterday’s dream

Our stories buried somewhere like sunken kingdoms

We were the great monarchy we could never be, now

Living the lie today, the truth is seen in crumbs

I am waiting for you to meet me once again

Because my emotions transcend laws and lifetimes

Remember that my love for you never died then

In a blink of an eye we will be intertwined

And in praise, the wolves are proudly howling our names

To the moon who kept the covenant of bygones

As the sun shines on past lives we conquered and claimed

Ancient promises surmount the myths of the clock

Forgive me because I have forgotten your face

But it was your name I called between dusk and dawn.
