Forsaken
His days may come regret of heart
The gifts made through the years apart
His kin within his heart now found
the place his spirit dwells,
a word, a joke, a gesture made,
take back their childhood years charade,
when light adorned the mantle bright
giving truth to mortal life,
now aged of years gods peace may come,
while dreams sequent life's river runs,
within his nights such scenes parade,
Illusions trapped from life's charade .
