Solace for a Guilty Heart
No direction came to mind,
I traveled listless in the fade.
Wishing to leave it all behind,
So many mistakes that I have made.
I walked along a river,
Loneliness my only friend.
Life's resolve began to quiver,
And I wanted it to end.
But I noticed a rare flower,
That bloomed every hundred years.
Precisely on the hour,
I was quickly brought to tears.
Our paths had somehow crossed,
As if it was meant to be.
My love no longer lost,
The one who saved my heart was she.
Solas a symbol of my mistake,
Another word for foolish pride,
And though our hearts now break,
I pine to have her by my side.
Once again along the water,
She cannot join me in my fight,
I sacrificed two hearts for slaughter.
Because I need to do what's right.
If I survive this heavy weight,
Will she give me one more chance?
For when I change the world's fate,
I shall save her my last dance.
