I'm not saying farewell
Where do you dwell?
In...

Happen if I could go forward, so she could see.
Because...

Commemorative symposiums on humans need for wanting more
Symbols of ancient mystery drawn upon cave walls
Thimbles of fragrant misery born from what a man recalls

Admirable voices
It's a gloomy morning...

heaven's height!

No independence,
