Chapter 77 - Paradelle 10 (2/2)

The river water rings its edges.

From a year without you beside me with the pain,

from a year without you beside me with the pain.

These selected moments surface,

these selected moments surface.

You beside me without the pain,

surface from a year with these selected moments.

The river rock softens its edges with time.

Oak at the heart strengthens as the rings thin.

Sage survives the winter pain.

Your body breaks the water surface beside me.

These moments selected from a year with

and without you.
