I
We would say that we were young
And were content to dance to the great dance of the weave, pawns of unseen hands on an unseen chessboard

And the pattern weaves itself around us


II
Then, the beginning of our ends
Sacrifices were made, ties unravels and loosen, and a broken knight breaks the chessboard in turn

As eclipses came and went, we were left behind


III
And after twilight had passed, we open doors
To places we would and could not forget
Discarded pawns, unused swords, broken threads, and questions after questions

We are not made to deal well with aftermaths


IV
Yet beneath it all, or tucked high in your attics
Amidst your neatly stacked memories, lores, and her ebony hair, the serpent waits and uncoils.
For we are tied to the weave in ways we could not fathom

And we too, will wait.



Watercolors on Sketchbook Paper

A bigger version of the drawing (separated into two parts) can be seen in [link] and [link]

Decided to do a little spring cleaning inside my head ^^; The drawing started out as a teensy piece of A4 paper, but then it just sort of grew and grew, and I ended up patching 4 and a half of said paper with scotch tape to make ends meet (I guess one can still see the telltale signs of the divides XD)… It was really fun to draw though, hope you enjoy the jumble :D
