zatais

As the sun kisses the horizon,
The wind whistling across the ruined landscape
Is a whispered accompaniment to nature's reclamation of Man's works.
All My serenity, all My peace, all My inner tranquility disappears
As I reclaimed the familiar thoughts of the past I thought I'd put to rest.
The sudden arrival of these thoughts struck an ominous note.
I was scared and I knew that something was bearing down on me.
But I didn't know what... And even if I had known, I wouldn't have felt any better.
I couldn't sleep as my thoughts raced each other.
With the arrival of twilight, I came back to the world of reality,
Where mortality is rated.
You didn't sleep either...
Why is it that the noblest people are the ones most troubled by conscience?
Are you not the noble one?
I always thought you were hard hearted... And now I know why...
Because your heart is made of pure gold.
But I will not be betrayed by My human weakness.
It is beyond the range of My thinking
To comprehend the cause of My distress.
And so... must it end in pain and madness?
I have felt an unknown emotion stirring in My heart
For I will love you always...
"It is better to be free with nothing,
Than to be enslaved within luxury", they say.
And what if we were free within this luxury?
I'm not sure that is possible...
Not unless the luxury were shared...
Just like we share each other's love.
