Karmic Cycles

And here we are again it seems

I heard a whisper in a dream

Of lifetimes traveled hand in hand

Of promises and wedding bands

The challenges traversed by us

The trauma covers you in dust

You walking through the thickest haze

I couldn’t pull you from the maze

The karmic cycles we go through

But in the end I am with you

For every monster we will slay

It brings us to a brighter day
