“She had the right idea, old man, don't you think - to disappear before it gets too late?”

Un soir, t'en souvient-il ? nous voguions en silence ;
On n'entendait au loin, sur l'onde et sous les cieux,
Que le bruit des rameurs qui frappaient en cadence
Tes flots harmonieux.
— Le Lac, Alphonse de Lamartine.
We were part of the dream.
The silence was our voice.
The air held our souls.
Our vision contained the future and the past.
Our existence was retained.
Our steps were unknown.
We were there,
and we were present.
A week of distance.
Life is motion.
