Epilogue
I have seen the sunrise
For the first time in many months of darkness and night
It has burned through me like the eternal life giving light of heaven
And it is so beautifully illuminating
Rose
But nothing compared to you
I am light, and air
Wind and breath
I am snow, and feather
Dust and ash
My body is broken and cracked
The river will wash away my flesh
And the sun will bleach my bones to ivory
And I will become part of earth and soil
You are my last dream
Rose, my Roza
Please do not mourn for me
But live
Live for me, dance, laugh, and love for me
Love who ever will treat you as you deserve
And remember that I will always be with you
I am in the air you breathe
The sun that shines down on you
The moon that moves the waves
And I will never leave you
I love you
From the deepest bottom of my soul
And although you have freed it
It will always belong to you
Only you
You have been my salvation
My redemption
My soul is mine again
Free to love and fly and soar
Free from violence and sin
But to live for eternity in peace and joy and love and hope
You are the goddess of mercy, you are beauty incarnate
You have saved me
Rose
I
Am
Free
