Beyond those treacherous mountains,
lay a shack, rusty and old,
in sat a weary woman,
full of past memories and experiences,
of the lover she knew;
of the world she knew.
Knew none but her,
of the sacrifice gave he for her,
for the lover he knew;
for the world he knew.
With naught but her reminiscence,
waited she there, patiently,
for Death to materialise,
to waft her to him,
to her beloved,
to her haven,
and Death did;
and Death did.
