I remember

The dawn of the final event

And the countless morrows that came

And went before it

Uncalled yet precious in every passing

Yet we played along

The mummers farce

With every twist of plot

From the start, plain for all to see

You led, I followed

A pair of weary footprints

Along this path

Across the abyss

Of fallen thrones

See, the sun bore a son

Luminous and warm

To destroy us all

Yet the strength would fail

Unto sickness succumb

The strongest of brows

The brightest of souls

Went out

I will find

A place for us to hide

To rest and reside

To linger until at last

Death please us claim

But not now

Please not now

A radiant halo of flies

A silent breath of putrid lullabies

For a short while our path was light

Where two once strode

There's no longer more than one

Of man, a remnant we were

The last pair, these deadly airs we shared

Stalking the dead horizon, on we strode

The soil, the seas, this barren earth

Was ours
