In the end .
I was ready to give it all up -
e v e r y t h i n g .
I was half out of my mind with l o v e .
And I didn't think twice about
what I was throwing into the fire,
as long as I could k e e p it
burning for just another minute -
if only I was allowed to sit awhile long
beside its pale glow.
That was how I l o v e d you in the end.
With my body cold and shuddering.
With empty hands over s m o l d e r i n g ash,
counting out the minutes.
