by Sasami

We weave our lives
Out of the mists of chaos,
You and I.
We cannot weave identical lives,
But I once wished
I could weave our Life-webs
Together, but not now.

Once, I could say
That Terra was beautiful,
That I knew beauty at all.
But perhaps
That knowledge that I treasured
Fled with the unfortunate
Death of a former life.

Now, I know not who I am,
What to weave from the mists,
While you weave steadily away.
You do not know
What has happened to me.

Maybe it is best
That you don't know
My pain.
