Enos/Methuselah

A set of poems for a set of tragic twins.

Prophet of Methuselah

 

You who live, come to die

Come to live alone like I

I wait for thee

The match to me

Your voice alone I hear, you see?

Set him free

For this fate to mend

Come and find me for this world's end

Surrender the choice you have long since lain

Come here and let your silence reign 

 

 

Prophet of Enos

 

You who live, come to die

Come to die alone like I

I wait for thee

The match to me

Your voice alone I hear, you see?

Set me free

For this fate to rend

Come and find me at this world's end

Honor the choice you have long since lain

Come here and let your true heart reign

Author's Note
