Recognize me!

After Death
I was reborn
Not the same
Differently shaped

Only my eyes
Could tell you
Who I was
So long ago

I stayed at your side
Felt a connection
But couldn't name it
Could you?

You looked at me
And saw a stranger
You looked at me
And didn't see my eyes

But I stayed
I must not leave
There was a hope
You could tell me something

Something
Anything about me
Why, I, a lost Alb
Was drawn to you

You
Dragon
Brother
Protector

And then you saw me
With your eyes
And your heart
One brief moment

You stopped
And looked
And looked
And looked

My soul screamed
'Recognize me!"
And you did
Finally

Reunited
For a short time
'Till Thanatos' embrace
Took me to another life

But I will
Forever
Look into your eyes
And recognize you

Brother
