“Oh, how I tried—to forget you, to distance myself from the memories we shared. But I failed miserably. You remained with me, a shadow in every thought, a presence in every place I visited.

Täglich stand der junge Sklave Um die Abendzeit am Springbrunn, Wo die weißen Wasser plätschern; Täglich ward er bleich und bleicher. Eines Abends trat die Fürstin Auf ihn zu mit raschen Worten: Deinen Namen will ich wissen, Deine Heimath, deine Sippschaft! Und der Sklave sprach: ich heiße Mohamet, ich bin aus Yemmen, Und mein Stamm sind jene Asra, Welche sterben wenn sie lieben.”

“My life feels like a dream that has already ended. There's nothing to fear and nothing to rejoice about. I should feel happy, but instead, I feel nothing. Lately, I experience a profound sense of emptiness. This void is unmistakable, even when I try to convince myself otherwise. It is beautiful, boundless, full yet empty. Now I've come to understand what people mean about memories—whether they are good or bad, they always leave you feeling a bit more empty afterward. After an ending, there's just a long stretch of time where it seems everything has concluded and nothing new will ever begin. Maybe there is no path back to a lost paradise.”
