Love at first sight
\nand I close my eyes.
\nI have lived too long.
\nWhat have I lost?
\nDid a part of my soul
\ngo to sleep,
\nand never wake up?
\nDid a riptide
\npull me out to sea?
\nDid a book tell me
\nwhen to die,
\nand I said, enough!
\nI can\u2019t make it
\nback to shore. Enough!<\/p>\n
The book I was reading
\nis the book of the dead.
\nEnough!
\nA shore is one thing.
\nIts grains of sand another.
\nEnough!
\nThere is one lonely place
\nin my world, without end,
\nbetween end
\nand beginning.
\nLove at first sight happens.
\nIt happened and may again.
\nBut is once all there is?
\nWho knows,
\nwhen enough is enough.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
