Love is a unitless value with no meaning in pounds -
the thing I wrote on the back of my hand in fourth grade,
without knowing that my love would be written in the unit of atheists,
capturing the seconds with their mouths open, saying their goodbyes
without 'see you afterwards': this unit is
Fear, please be careful on the roads tonight, don't touch
anything metal. The anthem of two people who really
do not want to outlive one another. The anthem of once-strangers
grasping the comfort of false certainties,
who now say I hope to live a long, long life with you
and seldom find the truly endless paths.

Forever is the most beautiful word I have ever heard -
it is much more than seven letters. It is fantasies of long-lasting
empires that each higher than the sun, it is dreams and
carefully constructed lives. It is the path that stretches in
front of us, break down those continental divides,
stretching from ushuaia to ulaanbatar, take this verse as a promise,
that I will give you our forever; I will have nothing left to
give you.
