So profound
is my passion
in this moment-
that I feel it echo
through eternity.

So strong
the pleasure and pain elixir-
that compels me
through this storm
to an unknown destination.

And I consider with pride,
all the sailors and lovers such as I,
my brothers and sisters,
who have persevered
against all reason and at great odds,
just to know what lies beyond,
even it it means just finding space.
