The soul is cooler than the heart but warms for a longer time....
Every moment without you
is like a lost eternity in hell.
I know, there is a gap between us,
and I will not let you suffer for it
but allow you any freedom
that would all but rob me of you.
You belong to no one
but remain a tenant of my soul,
its chief inhabitant, and that I promise you:
that home I will keep warm for you forever.
Nowadays all gaps can be abridged and bridged,
there never was an actual need for a divorce,
there never was a separation but from vanity and selfishness,
and honest love goes on forever,
and I will not give you anything but honesty.
There is a gap between us - let's forget it,
since it does not matter,
since our love is all that matters,
and it would be unfair to ourselves
if we did not allow it air to breathe
and let it live and burst into that flower
that blooms only nevermore to wither.
