Where dost thou reside

Fragment of the vessel

By CieloPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

Where dost thou reside?

Now that the power is beyond my grasp,

To bear these burdens within,

I persist in the search,

For a vessel to contain them all.

Where can it be found?

Should one encounter it,

I pray, deliver it unto me.

Not only to engrave my essence,

But to inscribe the world entire,

So the cycle of suffering may cease.

And when I discover it,

The first to descend into the abyss,

To the land of darkness, better than earth,

Shall be I, the awakened one,

For I am the fragment,

Reborn within the vessel’s heart.

Yet if it eludes my quest,

If this vessel remains unfound,

I shall carry on, undeterred,

Bearing the weight with steadfast grace,

For hope and resolve shall be my guide,

Until the day of fate’s embrace.
