THE LAST DAY

I

“I find salvation,

In the circle of your arms.

I hold on tight for the duration,

I hope there will be no harm.

---

And if there is pain,

May it be so that I feel it only a little.

Let my life not be in vain,

Now let me know the secrets of life’s riddles.

---

And when the sun goes down forever,

May I be with you.

Our love shall not be severed,

May these words be true . . .”
