The Inevitable

Waiting for the end in joy
My script fulfilled
No breaking of the eternal cycle
No change permitted

O how it all ran
You came to me on your own
With all delight
And I was yet to enter the chain

Your first repulsion
Signaled the game begun
And I struggled once again
In the coil to be

The current turned upside
Rivers followed no rule
And you went far or I set you so
Like the distant echo

And so we wait for the birth
The long cherished death
The wheel rotates on and on
And we no more

After how many years
Will we sit again together
To look into each other’s eyes
And laugh
