“My father awaits for us, oh
my beloved and the people
weave wreaths and crowns.”
“My horse is neighing, oh
my love, ready to take us
away to our destiny”
“The throne is meant for us, oh
my beloved, the horns of war
and the lyres of peace are heard!”
“Voyages await for us, oh
my love, to unknown lands
to our first Fate together!”
“Let us stay here and have
children, oh my beloved, a new
world to our likeness!”
“Let us go, my love, to give
birth to the generation of tearless
which will change the world
in order to reach to this land
I turn my heart into stone and
I made a cemetery of my soul
I turn my mind into an arrow
and my wish into a ghost
I used all these starting with
my parents who I killed.
