I will walk the path forever walked

One step ahead of you

And one step behind

I will choke in the dust of your passing

And skirl more into your face

It all tastes the same

Even when you feign otherwise

But here on the path forever walked

The old will lie itself anew

We can sigh like kings

Like empresses on gift-carts

Resplendent in imagined worth.

I will walk the path forever walked

Though my time is short

As if the stars belong

Cupped here in my hands

Showering out these pleasures

That so sparkle in the sun

When down they drift settling flat

To make this path forever walked

Behind you behind me

Between the step past, the step to come

Look up look up once

Before I am gone

Teller of Tales, Fasstan of Kolanse
