The Emerald Road to Elysium Fields

By Guttercat

As you journey to life’s end
& pass beyond its spheres
I sit upon the nighest shore
To whisper words of mourning

May it be a forgotten star has shone
Upon paths to regions unknown
The pain evanesces/was transformed
Into songs of fragile beauty

In my heart I keep a prayer
& forever hold it close
The time ‘tis not far
When we’ll meet in distant verdant fields
