O human race, born to fly upward, wherefore at a little wind dost thou so fall?

When I had journeyed half of our life’s way, I found myself within a shadowed forest, for I had lost the path that does not stray.

---

Now you know how much my love for you burns deep in me when I forget about our emptiness, and deal with shadows as with solid things.

---

At grief so deep the tongue must wag in vain; the language of our sense and memory lacks the vocabulary of such pain.

---

Through me you go into a city of weeping; through me you go into eternal pain; through me you go amongst the lost people.

---

I care not where my body may take me as long as my soul is embarked on a meaningful journey.

---

It was the hour of morning, when the sun mounts with those stars that shone with it when God’s own love first set in motion those fair things.

---

For she doth make my veins and pulses tremble.

---

A fight every now and again does make life more interesting. Don’t ya think?
