The nymph dared him to come closer.
“I wish I could’ve been there with you.”
Because with him, she shattered beautifully.
She felt alive.

With him, she was whole.

In the end,
I got it all wrong…
I came too late.
It wasn’t my fault,
Yet all the while, I believed I could get you out.

So we must survive…
If I have to do this,
I don’t see why you can’t…
We charmed our way.
Bereft, we must stay.

They won’t allow …
Death to come near you.
Sadness be swallowed, fear be damned.

By unconditional love…

This isn’t just rapturous Heaven,
It’s Utopia…
Forget what you thought real,
And open your eyes to the truth.
