Once.
I've never known life like this.
I've never known love like this.
I've never enjoyed each passing day such as this.
Then.
Wretch at the ruins left behind
By the vilest creatures there are.
May that suffer and die
and Rot where they're left.
Still.
I never knew life like that.
I never knew love like that.
And am greatful.
And hope to know such,
Life and Love.
Again.
