“Thinking as I do, as the light touches your face, wishing that I could ever be so gentle, meaning not to offend, I fell into a sleep, knowing hypocrites are always going to be, sleep my darling, sleep my darling, how I love you with such just, we have half-life enough to sustain us through the rough, clashes and defence of all we have done wrong, hoping there is a whole where the half used to be, I tried all night to set your body on fire, apologies if I ever acted lazily, apologies if you had to kick me in the side, apologies too if ever there was any doubt, apologies again if ever I was lazy, I weave the gold back into straw, how I love you like I loved you before”*
