Now I will close my eyes and sink into darkness . . . and I will suffer no more.
There is no need to extinguish that flame, that love. No let it burn until it is spent, and one day, the ashes it leaves behind will become something more than the remnants of your pain.
Now I am nothing merely a shadow in the dust.
All these moments that we shared , all the feelings that accompanied them . . . they are real as aught that came before and nothing will ever change that--will ever change what we mean to one another.
Nobody can take
anything away from him
Nor can anyone give
anything to him
Once, a man set out to court a siren believing true love could tame their violent nature . . .
