I know beginnings,
I know endings too,
and life-in-death, and something else
I'd rather not recall just now.
First encounter
We met in an unbelievable year,
When the world's strength was at an ebb
I marvel at everything as if it were new.

}Forgive me that I ignored the sun
And that I lived in sorrow.

Each of our lives is a Shakespearean drama raised to the thousandth degree.
The conflict
This is only the beginning
You're tender and loyal, we'll be friends.
