| i whispered an offer softly in the ear of your playful heart. i closed my mouth and spoke in a hundred silent ways. you know what's on my mind, you've heard my thoughts, and now, what i described last night, i'll do tomorrow... |

| we are drunk of tasting the wine that came without a glass filled with light every morning, and joyuful into the night they say our path leads to no destination the joy and passion we experience here is better than any destination |
