Take this heart; it has been broken.
Take this dream I've been living without you.
I thought I'd never give my heart away
Until you came into my life,
And I gave my heart to you.

And as long as you love me,
So will I love you.
For I love you without limits:
This is what I want from you.

Take this dream; it has been broken.
Take this life I've been living without you.
I thought I'd never give my love away
Until you came into my life,
And I gave my heart to you.

Life garbs me in her yellow way,
Wrapping me in saffron cloth
And topaz set in palest gold.
Your eyes are the sky
Reflected in the sea,
And I am the dancing sun.
You rise in the cresting wave for me;
I fall to you in the sunset:
Our kiss is the end of day.

ENGRAVED IN STONE:
two eternal gods

Morning grows full,
Pregnant with the sun
Until the day breaks
And shadows free the dawn.

The light is early;
The angel's face smiles,
And we have loved
In the night, long ago,
And lost awhile in sleep.

You are my god
And my refuge
And I find rest
In your eternal arms.

CHRISTOPHER

I WANT TO LEAVE THIS WORLD OF MEN
AND WOMEN
LEAVE AND NOT RETURN
NOT HEED THE CALL TO LIFE

but this is not for me
not yet, at least, not yet
after this, will i move on?

THE WALLS OF FEAR AND DEATH
COLLAPSE
I AM REGARDED SANE BY
THOSE THAT DO NOT KNOW ME

i am old. the weight of
age is heavy, but i must
bear the burden to be free.

I WANT TO LEAVE THIS WORLD OF MEN
AND DEATH
AGE AND NOT RETURN
but i must bear this burden to be free
