How razor-sharp, <br />how fast beyond escape, <br />the flashing sword of fate <br />when, in one final strike, <br />it slashed the life-long bond <br />between the two of us, forever... <br /> <br />Not fast enough, alas, to kill <br />the ice-cold, stinging pain <br />that hit me when I realized <br />that our intense togetherness, <br />our times of greatest happiness, <br />had suddenly become <br />mere memories and dreams...<br /><br />Willem VanVoorthuysen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/memories-and-dreams/
