Eleven years is not so long a time.
Life goes on, and who knows what comes next?
Each moment writes its own persuasive text,
Visions in which will and fate align.
Even so, love can conquer time,
Not bound by what might come before or next.
Years, not moments, write the lyric text,
Enduring as two lives for life align.
Although in time one can't know what comes next,
Relying on the moment's reasoned text,
Sing of love, that will the stars align.
