Everyone was celebrating being alive. As they should be.
“You have nothing but me", I said. "And yet, you'd let me go?"

“in the last thousand years:
empires have risen and fallen
and I have loved you,
plagues have leaped from rat to daughter
and I have loved you
humanity has conquered sea and sky
and I have loved you
kings have been slain and forests razed and witches
burned and and gold struck and maps redrawn and
fortunes traded and volcanoes erupted and moons
landed and cathedrals sculpted and rivers dirtied
and masterpieces painted and battlefields bloodied
and I love you,
and I have loved you,
and I will love you.”
