Stage II: Serpentine Love

Old eyes

A thousand years soul

Looks on, lives on

In this dreary world

"Part way! Beware! It's the serpent!"

I drag along these shadows

My only welcoming haven

Mistakes long lost and faces long past

Still haunt me , my every treason

Can I not love?

Must I always hate?

Am I not another being?

If I love I love with my all

Unlike all the people who mistreat

So why not try

This time

Try and love this serpent?
