Betrayal of Time
See thee now, who hast betrayed
The ways of old, the sacred sage
The time that flows in strands, a stream
Its silver waters under your light doth gleam
You robed in white with flowers crowned
Who looks upon me, in sorrows drowned
Such purity heard within your voice
Bestowed upon evil against your choice
Why do you look at your love with pity
Why do you stare at me with such humility
I, your love, lifetimes ago
Why did you leave the times of old
