"probing the silence ● crossing the sound of silence ● vanishing ● dark and thought ● thought and fire ● (dense) ● it's night above Rome [above you]"

'Human beings cannot choose their time or place. But they can choose their fate.'
'We don't know another universe.
This one should be enough.'
Gravity and grace.
