That we
are even here,
in this strange
existence, is
incredible enough
but of our peculiarities,
consider love...
You see,
I'll wager
love needs more...
and,
despite knowledge
to the contrary,
when our time comes,
when all
that I have shunned
and scorned, comes
home to haunt...
I will convince
myself, some part
of us endures,
that we go on,
reformed...
