shadowed wanderer i sit and stare

shadowed wanderer i sit and stare

her eyes pierce my core my being

like me she has been before

we sit across the room and watch

what has been points to what's to come

ageless we wait our turn

the new and young thing they create

all is stolen and remade

we watch the ancient fire lords cast their sparks

while water directs the flow

ageless masters steady on their courses

while we the ancient wanderers sit and wait

the dance to and fro create, destroy, remake

some good, some bad, but left balanced the move

alone we are, so rare the chance that two at once would be

yet here we are, so drawn so weary, clutching the ancient secrets

we watch, we drink, our paths cross the out the door i walk

cloak tight, hood up, and once more my secret safe i step into the shadows of oblivion
