As a blanket of clouds

Laid the ancient stars to rest

My brother and I 

Embraced the familiar test

 

Watching the dances of the dark

Falling under the night's embrace

My friend and I 

Gazed beyond a familiar face

 

Perplexed by the emptiness of human wisdom

Seeing each star as a remnant of broken trust

My rival and I 

Looked beyond the perception of a stalwart just 

 

Resting among fallen leaves and hopeful dreams

Remembering the day when the wind whispered our names

My companion and I 

Accepted that this was the last of our juvenile games 

 

Seeing the vacant moon pass over the silent hill

Representing the passing of our time as young men

My teacher and I 

Purged the thought of returning to such ignorance once again

 

Unraveling as the sun's brilliance overtook the empty heavens 

Approaching a new day in the life of a man; a new age in the life of a boy

My ally and I 

Looked to the setting sun and fleeting clouds as a manifestation of our future joy

 

As a blanket of clouds 

Commanded the youthful sun to awaken

My brother and I 

Forgave all that was mistaken
