It will ever be we

A poem towards the only victory there ever was.

Dear Foe, how long have you been friend,

Distant Foe, closer come, I see me,

Dark Foe in light, brother be,

It has always been you, it has always been me. 

Oh nigh hidden Foe to filled soul,

Hindered perch on that hill,

The first frozen plunge, in shock still,

If always me, it is clear it can never be we.

Shaded eye, bright mirror, same blood run,

Together first in hate, self imprisoned,

Bound together risen, Foe, why can’t I see,

It will ever be you, It will ever be me. 

Hates cords turned, wrought strength untold, 

Eyes lift to follow the string,

One to one we have to see,

It has always been you, it has always been me.

In rivers rage, Foe, you have to see,

It took the age, Foe, I am freed,

Together smashed cages, it is time to leave,

It has always been you, it will ever be we.
