Take your time...
...passed us, time flew--
onto eternity--it said to me...
meeting my gaze with eyes sharp.
...leveling our eyes, I knew
what he said was true...we were
heading towards forever...
--I can't stop for you...I can't stop for
either of you--he said.
--do we want him to stop--we asked
ourselves...do we really want this,
eternity?
--I'm sorry, I really am. I fly with
purpose and reason, however...I do
not bend, fold, stop, or freeze, I move
swift, and sluggish...however...with purpose.
Do not forget--
Locking our eyes with him, we said--I do--
sealing our fates', locking our lives', twisting
our paths' and linking our souls'...
--we want eternity...together...can you
help us--we asked with our humble voices'...
--yes, yes...I would help...but you no
longer need it...you've made your choice...
both of you have...I'll be here watching...
close...never more than a
hand away. Don't forget--
--thank you, for what, I'm not sure,
but we owe you--
--all is fair...just don't forget.
Take your time--
