After Valentine

When the earth was covered with water
After everything had burned to ash
After you woke up on the island
Of yourself after the long
Trek north to the Burgenland
After the failed initiation
When you lost your second sight
And couldn't find your friend
And the flower of immortality
Slipped from your feeble hand
It must have been around then
You finally fell asleep
And the dream of your youth began
And you knew you would come again
