Constant follower

+ constant follower +
An unhurried pace constant
Follows you as you race
Gathering to yourself
Temporal moments fleeting
Hearing Time's pounding nearer
While the pace of your follower
Never lags or speeds
Moves with total inevitability
Already knows your schedule
When what will happen will
Needs not rush to greet
Sets no other agenda than the meeting
Where mortality meets end
There Death shall be
No more a follower instead companion
And when seen be recognised
As clearly and completely
As your last breath.
