“She whispered a verse by Amanda Hamilton:
You came again,
blinding my eyes
like the shimmer of sun upon the sea.

your eyes haunt my heart and it falls still.
And so farewell
until the next time you come,
until at last I do not see you.”

Capable of deeds

The heart dictates as well as feels.

The path I have taken,
That you have taken
The long way through this pass?”
