Out of a grave I come to quench the kiss
That flames upon your forehead with a glow
That blinds you to the way that you must go.”

To drive the shadows back;
Prolong the talk on this or that excuse....”

And flames laid waste our world,
All that was left me was a little garden
And thou within it, my beloved, my comrade.”
