I am in quiet ponder time
and...

The PassengerPassenger of past lives,

Love Not BloodThe shadow cast by twilight's breath,
A tale transpire, of life and death.

From distant lands, in agony borne.
To Italy's shores, he finds his way,
Where ancient mutters softly sway.
Betwixt the olive groves,...

Our brilliant brains are fully scrubbed,
As sniling and kids in a foaming bath.
