In the dusky realm where shadows stir,
An echo of forgotten whispers loiters,
Among the gnarled trees of destiny's wood,
The lines upon the ground, a tapestry of dreams.
Oh, the journey was never singular,
Steeped in the intertwining roots of fate,
Each branch a possibility, each leaf a moment,
Untangling and entangling in whispered reveries.
The candle flickers, its flame a mirror,
Of all the roads untaken, paths unseen,
The gentle flicker, a ballet of shadows,
Illuminating choices, ephemeral yet eternal.
Do we dare follow the winding trail,
Where the moon weaves silver threads in darkness?
For every step whispers a new tale,
A dance of souls on the precipice of the unknown.
Yet here I stand, at the crossroads of yore,
Faced with the mirror of countless selves,
Each one calling, a siren's song of dusk,
Echoing through the corridors of yesterday's dreams.
