Analise-
Dearest love, the needs be you must go!
Dawn is swift approaching,
and tasks with light will come.

Roigan-
Time is not a thing of mine.

Analise-
Yet still the world turns.
Take thy beauty from me,
else I would forget all responsibility
in memory of your face.

Roigan-
Do not make me cost thee such remembrance
and instead let me stay
to remind you with my presence.

Analise-
You cannot-you will be missed, fair prince!

Roigan-
Call me not by who I am outside these walls.
It is a name that weighs but heavily upon me
that I do love to leave outside when I enter.

Analise-
Arise, return and reclaim your parcel
before you forget entirely where you have left it.

Roigan-
I wish you would come with me
and share the name as princess.

Analise-
That I could not do,
as well you know.
I have already my own weight to carry:
The title of sister and the job of mother
to younger hearts who would call me friend.
So please, take what thou wilt and leave what thou canst,
until you can again take leave of your burden
and assume the light-hearted smile
that has so charmed my heart.
