In the wake of time

Travelling through you

A journey no less to desire

In the essence of time gifted

To you, she winces fearfully

As she raises herself

In the wake of time

Travelling through you

Unscathed and untouched

Receiving such eternity

Grasping limitless

Gifting of a life

In the wake of time

Travelling through you

Impaling your thoughts

As you did to her

Unlimited fear through eternity

You removed her smile and life

In the wake of time
