And before me, in the darkness
there was Light.
Commanding me to relinquish you,
to let you pass into the arms of Night,
I weep, fight,
bend my will to strengthen you
supplement your faltering spirit with my own
pour love and healing into you
exhaust my own reserves, to bouy you
and now, near bound to die myself, I am commanded
Your life, the Avator demands it.

I cannot! I cannot just let you go.
I fight
I weep
I plead
I wrap my soul around you
I take your pain
you shall no longer hurt
I take your despair
give you love to fill the void
Hold your hand for the first steps in this journey
Lend you strength
I cannot walk the whole way with you
The spirits meet you half way there
I walk with you halfway home
I swear, you shall not ever walk alone.
