“So long as men can breathe or eyes can see So long lives this, and this gives life to thee." William Shakespeare
They know time is the greatest of thieves, stealing their oneness until she no longer recognizes herself in his face and he no longer remembers her voice as music, her steps as a dance.
When he was a boy… he loved as a boy-- believing she created his universe. Now as a man, he in turn, is her sun and moon and stars.
So much depends on the landscape of a life, so much of what we get. . . we give.
