I die of dreams;

Though I am diminished, I remain myself. The air itself catches fire if I ask it.

What is it that a shadow is trying to say / with the borrowed tongue of silence? Here I stand, // having heard all that has been said, / and like the prolonged abundance of an olive tree // I recall only the beauty of a life, / vast and resilient.

It feels good to think about you when I'm warm in bed. I feel as if you're curled up there beside me, fast asleep.

"We have missed it…There is nothing at all to be found here. I will travel farther, and I may find it in other places."
