Of eternities passing,
I can hardly think-
of a better way to say goodbye.
To the sun and the moon,
the water and the clouds.
I've always wanted to live
someplace where the sky is blue.
With the light of a star,
the fragrance of a blooming fruit tree.
The kiss of a bare hand,
to the fading flowers on a winter's night.
To be the one last person-
who fell in love before the end of time.
When lost has already found you.
