Before dawn of the universe , before the dawn of time
The gatekeepers where guarding as their minds and hearts entwine.
The whispers were there though as the shadows began to grow
The gentle gatekeepers had the sight of past and future , knowledge that grieved them so.
The darkness it was gathering long before even the light was born.
The two who knew this best could only sit and morn.
They saw the evils and ravishes that would beset this world
Saw it all, they did, even before all the dice and stars were hurled.

Oooo…love this second installment! Tell me, if I may ask, was “morn” in the sixth line used as a sort of metaphoric … sad birthing as in sad beginning or dawning … or was it a fortunate typo for mourn?

Hands up, as much as I would love to say it was clever play on words…. it is sadly an elegant typo of mourn… 😉 xx
