So.

What does it matter?

He says, she says

For the clock

is not a reality

but that of a dreaming thing

Unmeasured, 

by the heart.

1000 life times past

1000 life times hence

This mortal coil

shall rule us once again

Unknown

&

New

To begin

To arrive

And to start it all

Again.

For I await 

upon the

shore 

for her

For ever.

Strangers

once more

hoping that we

have finally learned

our lesson

For history, time

eternity is nothing

Without her

And without her

Time does not matter.
