The Hero of Ages

In times like these
I think of then
Of what became,
What could have been

In dire times
In times awry
When days of doom and gloom are nigh;
I think of when the sky was blue
I think of then
I think of you

I think of never, evermore
Of all that is and was before
Of things that were, that came to be
I think of you
I think of me

Of shrieking stars that spoke of hay -
Whence sun would shine, and shine away
Of worlds that would be built anew
I think of then
I think of you

Of legends lost, lunged to shame
Of heroes they never became
Of aimless tales that rang untrue
I think of them
I think of you

In times like these
I think of then
I think of when it all began
It’s in these times
I wait for then
I pray to wait for you again
