I don't see the danger in talking to a strangeronly in knowing their nameAfter the greeting there could be a meetingand so begins the painOnce you know them and they know youit's hard to let them goIf this person would die, then you might cryhide away from wanting to know -OTHERS because you're scaredscared they won't be there whenyou fallIs it better to be alone than to have someone ring your phone and say "I won't be back" without a care?"I've chosen a new path."Without a care!It's a game of Russian roulettesooner or later someone will lose
The space of the world is immense, before me and around me;If I turn quickly, I am terrified, feeling space surround me;Like a man in a boat on very clear, deep water, space frightens and confounds me.I see myself isolated in the universe, and wonderWhat effect I can have. My hands wave underThe heavens like specks of dust that are floating asunder.I hold myself up, and feel a big wind blowingMe like a gadfly into the dusk, without my knowingWhither or why or even how I am going.So much there is outside me, so infinitelySmall am I, what matter if minutelyI beat my way, to be lost immediately?

A Wife -- at daybreak I shall be --Sunrise -- Hast thou a Flag for me?At Midnight, I am but a Maid,How short it takes to make a Bride --Then -- Midnight, I have passed from theeUnto the East, and Victory --Midnight -- Good Night!
