Again

By: yi'tan

20 billion years ago, we stood

together

hands interlocked

as the heat seared our skin

and reduced our physicallity to nothingness

I held you tight

my attempt to keep us from separating

failed


1000 years ago, I found you again

realization too late

our hands bound to the stake

again clenched around each other

our strength

as the flames grew

the smell of our flesh, a bitter reminder

of my failure


now, once again, I have found you here

walking in shadows

to avoid getting burnt

in your hands I can feel you

like we were never apart

I am stronger now

I will not fail you

again
