To taste, feel, and love the words not yet discovered?

To see beyond the decay and on to pure joy?
No, you don't
Do you know what it is like,
To wish someone goodbye as they stand before you?

To wander beyond the edges of any map?

To stretch the borders of your minds understanding?

To let the songs of the sea flow into yourself?
No, you don't

To love someone so deeply there is nothing else?

To have all you need and be content with it all?

To commit countless wrongs and still be forgiven?

Or do you?
