Back

See:

I’ve been a fool long enough.

My eyes dazed upon the flame,

so bright, courageous, and warm in the dark,

I hungrily reached out, deadly too close, to the boundary.

Until, finally, I caught myself in spiegel.

Listen:

It’s not what we take that brings warmth to us.

It’s what rules we choose to abide by

that allows us to stand on our two feet under the glorious sun

and be at ease with ourselves

that keeps us warm.

Commit:

We will endure what comes before us.

Suffering will not, albeit close, last eternally.

Should we be alone all the way in the end,

we will find strength enough for a smile

for we will know we have done it the right way.

Believe.
