I go you go,my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing,my darling)

and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you

our now and here with paradise)

remember seek(forgetting find)

and in a mystery to be
(when time from time shall set us free)
forgetting me,remember me”
