: Only in seeking you have I understood—the 'death' of my former life is absolutely necessary. All this time, it seems I could not hold myself before you even through reason.
: Surely this effort was not yours to make, which is why I am visible today within your depths. Without doubt, your spiritual profundity and entreaty are commendable.
: The failure that has manifested in our external union—is it merely a matter of mockery to you?
: There is no spiritual liberation in this; do not seek to satisfy yourself—self-satisfaction often brings suffering equal to death itself.
: In this deep connection of ours, no personal fulfillment is possible; you have become capable of spiritual communion only through the attraction of your enchanting heart.
: Clear failure is evident in our external union—yet why do you wish to continue on that path?
: Your sweetness has captivated me. Naturally, my external perception is deeply drawn to the abundance of your beauty.
: Beauty? That is merely a fleeting shadow. Rather, by winning the devotion of your heart, I consider myself complete.
: My congratulations to you—you entered my soul long ago. Your memory and the depth of your heart are inconceivable.
: Do you think this union of our invisible beings is somehow possible?
: Impossible. If such a thing were ever to happen, that particular joy would be unbearable for humans.
: Perhaps happiness or sorrow is not the cause of human physical death, but if our connection touches the depths of boundless bliss—then undoubtedly your death would be inevitable.
: What if I say such death is what I desire? If you come, then be the occasion of my being's spiritual death!
: Ha ha, you have left your own body bloodied. Just as your heart shows no interest in seeking a single drop of that blood, I am utterly powerless to wound your soul.
