And even if we can never be
You'll find my hands and bones reaching to meet
For you, and only you, I'd break every wall of all worlds,
The fastest of seconds eternal, stealing life, that only ever grows
Tempers my will, my desire, a very need to hold you,
Be with you,
In any fleeting way I could--
made forever


And even if we can never be
In this life, or in the next, and all the other rest,
I'd break every wall of all worlds,
For my seconds to touch
The only soul who sees my darkest, deepest--
A very need to hold you,
Be with you,
In any fleeting way I could
made forever




Penned by my hand on the 18th of Glacian, in the year 957 AF.
