A Well-Known Morgue

 
I had thought long ago,
today even by mistake I would forget it all!


I had thought through and through,
even if I lose the way, I'll never walk the right path again!


I had thought for ages,
if I don't return while there's time, I'll never come back to the peaceful shore!


I had thought from afar,
all the failed pilgrimages, I'll cross over with casual ease!


I had thought with deep understanding,
given the chance, I'll fill that well-known graveyard with wasted passion!


I had thought through many errors,
even by mistake today I would forget all the old mistakes!
