Did I just hear you right?<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Because, if what I think <br />
I thought<br />
you said was that,<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
we certainly must <br />
<br />
discuss this…<br />
<br />
<br />
That’s not to say I’m questioning<br />
what it is we have,<br />
but rather,<br />
I’d say;<br />
<br />
it’d be wise <br />
<br />
for me to remain.<br />
<br />
<br />
Deliberate.

Did I just hear you right?

Because, if what I think
I thought
you said was that,

we certainly must

discuss this…

That’s not to say I’m questioning
what it is we have,
but rather,
I’d say;

it’d be wise

for me to remain.

Deliberate.

$Mehr,<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> When the fresh yolk rises<br /> In the east,<br /> <br /> \<br /> This is where I know you’ll be.<br /> <br /> <br /> When the winged messengers <br /> begin to stir<br /> in the morning blur,<br /> <br /> \<br /> This is where I know you’ll be. <br /> <br /> <br /> When the rays rise/<br /> to christen treetops,<br /> and the steeple <br /> has radiantly appeared,<br /> <br /> Still,<br /> I know;<br /> <br /> This is where you’ll be;<br /> <br /> <br /> Counting sets of 8,<br /> beholding the twinkle of tonight’s <br /> sky-dust.<br /> <br /> Tomorrow, Mehr.<br /> <br /> Tomorrow <br /> <br /> is yet<br /> <br /> A fresh dawn to sweetly greet.$
