You, escape me? Never....beloved
So long as the world contains us both
Me the loving and you the loth
While the one eludes, must the other pursue
My life is fault at last, I fear;
It seems too much like a fate indeed!


I dedicate this little note to suzzi: the love of my life. If only she could prophess the same for me from her heart
