Her form lies printed on the sheet
Her fragrance lingers in the heat
What chance that we again should meet

Mist cloaks the fingers of waves that break
and hiss forlornly as I take
The last journey I'll ever make

    chalice of awareness, the penalty
    could be: depression-
    living in a small coagulated island
    within
