Freeze my bones, bury them deep in an icy ground, rot them long and forget them longer.
Discard my ideas, let them flutter idly onto an eternal wasteland, forever barren and unadmired.
Crush my deeds, mangle them lifeless between the granite rollers and titanium cogs of ignominy, shapeless henceforth and beyond memory.
But remember my love, offered whole, without condition and forgive the blind imperfections of the soul that seeks to please.
Remember my tears, shed freely in defenceless moments, prostrate before you and at the mercy of your pleasure.
And remember me, my love, in my condition of devotion, a deafening heartbeat silenced only when love lives no more.
Remember me. Remember my love.
