For the Egyptian which follows
it is but scraps and notes
and compilations of a manuscript
and thoughts from a period
where it was of interest,
much was seen and designs made
of these things I still do not
truly grasp or comprehend
But I understand, tomorrow I will do that,
for it was already decided,
which choice do I have but to embrace
my fate as Shúen to be
for I was woven into existence by Heirs
as a Sheherazade.
Thus it is only to show excerpts
of what is still incomplete
on which no further work is done
but as Khym was released
and I, with Shúen must be
it is to be shown for where I do not
others continue instead
it's only for fragments left.
I stared into horizons set on a screen
it is outside my door too.
As a butterfly on a prisoners hand
I must flutter like it ;
I do not know where the wind blows
only where I must land.
The toll it has taken breaks me
to make as much as I have
only a third is presented as the rest
is irrelevant for a reader
whom but enquires of it
but the mountains of studies done
by me and many others
still stand behind us.
All which has passed was necessary
It would not be without ;
and that which comes may be as it too,
yet I am so, so afraid of it
for I do not know nor wise of it become
but there I must be.
