in the footsteps of the gods
so on I ran… faster
but I couldn’t escape myself
really just wanting to die
remembering it all
my hair turned from fire to ash
because I love you
for you know what we shared
more beautiful than the stars
caught in a web of desires
longing spreads it’s light upon the sea
my thoughts will never change
even when I glimpse but a memory
this life is bitter with love
a web I can weave no more
my lips are dry, my fingers ache
and time can never mend the spaces
where my fingers strayed
caressing the silences between
the fairest thing is what one loves
never again will I see
the highlands and the stream
never again will I hear
the sound of pipers as I did then
walking in the footsteps of the gods
