My Love for Thee

My love for thee is unchanging,

yet it evolved like the butterfly.

My love for thee is unchanging;

too bad fate was not on our side.

Dearest, what we could have shared!

Even now, as I step into the moonlight,

I hope and know it was for me you care.

It might be unfair, but what I couldn't find in life,

I found in death.

My love for you will endure.

If I had a choice, I would make the same one

of letting you off the hook of death.

I couldn't, and wouldn't, deprive another of

her chance at happiness.

Especially not if it's with you,

For my love for you goes beyond death.

As my past self dissolves into fairy butterflies,

I linger in grief for one more moment.

Then I let it go for good.

One last glance is all I need to give me strength.

Victor, beloved, trust me when I say

it's better this way.

At first, I thought you'd rescued me,-

now I know my love saved us both.

By loving you,

I've freed myself from unloving,

unforgiving,

perpetual misery.

As I float up towards the Moon,

I am at peace for the first time in years.

Farewell, Victor-

we will meet again.

Farewell, beloved!
