Rating: K+
A/N: This is set before Rand clean Saidin.
Summary: Death…

Oh these feet carry me far. Oh my body. Oh so tired.
Mouth is dry. Hardly speak. Holy Spirit rise in me.
Here I swear, forever is just a minute to me.

So long ago, it feels like ages ago. An eternity, how can it just be a year? I miss my life and in the same time this is nice. I used to be a simple farmer. Living with my dad, it was all so easy. My only trouble was how to get some time alone with Egwene. I laugh out loud. My laugh echoes in the empty hall. I'm sitting here, on my throne. All alone, no one is here. None of my friends, Mat and Perrin where are you? I think I'm losing my sanity here. I slash the air with my sword. Why did I draw the blade? I cackle at this whole situation, will I save the world? Light I am afraid…

I'll take everything in this life.
I'll join everyone when I die.

Men whose names I don't even know are following me. Fighting for me, they'll die for me…and here I am, just sitting here. I am amused. Why is this situation funny? Now I remember, I make no sense and still people are following me to the death. They count on me. I have to keep up a mask of sanity. Like I know what I am doing, I will win. I will defeat the Dark and bring peace to this world. How will I do it? My friends aren't here. Moiraine is dead. Egwene and Nynaeve are gone. Lan is out there somewhere. Elayne, Min and Aviendha…how will I protect them? They're better off without me. I sheath my blade and lean back on the throne.

Have my body. Have my mind.
Have my coat. Take my time.
These I borrow. Borrow so far.
Turn to dust, Fall apart.
Here I swear, forever is just a minute to me.

I'm tired. When will this end? How will this end? Will we survive? I am not afraid of dying. I count on it. Wonder if I'll get rid of Lews Therin? Or will he still be in my head? I can feel him in the back of my head; I guess I am not making any sense to him, because he's quiet. Light, I am so mad not even Lews Therin will speak to me.

I'll take everything in this life.
I'll join everyone 'cause all men die.
All men die, 'cause all men die.
I'll take everything in this life.
I'll join everyone since I'm gonna die.
I'll take everything in this life.
I'll join everyone 'cause all men die.

I'm tired, I want to sleep. I will sleep here. Just for an hour. Or as much as I can, before hell break loose. I'm just going to close my eyes for a few…
