"A step through the door, the cool morning air she was in my arms. No hesitation, in one motion, as if we were lovers, head up, eyes closed, she received my kiss. No ground beneath , no earthly bond..."

"Would you go away, just leave me be, I don’t have any need of your sympathy. Just myself, no one around, alone with my thoughts, as the sun goes down. No offer of assistance, do I desire, I’m fine, re..."
