Your cessation
The conclusion I’ve come to
The fate we never un-dwindled
The fate we never bared
But it was a fate of mine and someone else
A fate beheld
Against you
Without you
A fate unshared

Why yes,
Your meek existence has not gone unheard
You showed me the way
Walked me to the path,
But now you must watch my fading back
This was no fortuity
No fortune with me,
No future you seek was held in my teeth

No,
Your kismet is kind, though blind
It’s behind you
Let your debossed muddied stride
Be your guide
I’ll wave goodbye
You belong somewhere still
But it’s not by my side
