Rivenheart
Chamber Two - Patient Heart
I must go, I can't remain.
Though, in truth, I'd dwell in your heart all my days.
But, my days, the gods decree
Wind to an end.
Face your future, Yugi,
Take one step at a time.
There are friends around you,
I entrust you to them.
Reach, Yugi, and find
The loyal hearts that surround you.
They will carry you
'Til you walk on your own again.
You will find your way
You will conquer your destiny.
Your heart, so big, so bright
Room enough for me, and more
But what use have you for such as I
A musty pharaoh from a bygone age?
So, let me go
No regrets, no tears
Or rather, tears easily dried
And cried
No more.
Just as my friends did for me,
I now go and do for you.
Death's door might not gleam gold when it is your time
I promise, when you pass through, you will find
Arms opened wide and a heart steadfastly true.
My fondest wish? Eternity—with you.
Dream of child, mortal-weak; dream of man, stout-hearted.
Still joined through the core, center-woven, yang of yin encompassing—everything.
Beaming with light, protected by darkness, child of sun, father of future days; whither your heart to hearken?
A destiny restored creates balance, a soul unfettered becomes whole—for heart and love grow and return—someday.
My heart,
My love,
Wait here,
For you.
