*You left footprints in the sands of my dreams One last time could mean one last true moment of life Existence is inevitably present Life is rare Bent over the tables Or, sitting on an alphabetical carpet Life can only be present if existence is tolerated My tolerance couldn't have been possible without a moment of you When tolerance is accepted Life can become a redundant sequence of moments Moments of you However, "rare" depends on how much you give me A peasant can ask for a morsel I don't know how to ask for a millimeter/ of you Ignorance can be baffling Not at all bliss Rarity prevails for one reason: Ignorance* A multitude of footprints you left in the desert/ That is my dreams. Free of water and of you-All I have left/ are the footprints you left behind and a dry abyss of memories The tables and the carpet/ disappeared a long time ago.
