THE LOVE-TIME MACHINE

 
If I could turn back the hands of time to where I first saw you, I would have courted you. Of course only asking your fathers permission. Dost thou love me with all thine heart? I have told thee that I love thee, but in my negligence you reject me. Art thou afraid of me? No, for that could not be true, right? Tell me it is not so, tell me it is not truly so. If thou truly dost not love me, please speak of it fairly.
 
I see. Thou dost not love me, then I shall depart from here and I shall leave thee farewell.
 
In my time machine world thou does not love me. So here in the cold reality I shall change thy heart.
 
Farewell my beloved Lalieah, meet me in the dusk of twilight, in another dream.
