She, too, was, a river, maiden
Unreachable, mysterious, secretive
The, shyness, of, youth, unbearable
A, deep, deep, road, to, nowhere
Too, late, the, speaking, voice
Too, late, the shattering, rain
We, could, have, possessed, paradise,
In, the, morning,
Side, of, the, mountain,
Forever, together.

"It is when we try to grapple with other men's intimate needs that we perceive how incomprehensible are the beings that share with us the sight of the stars and the warmth of the sun."--Joseph Conrad
