[00:32.28] I want to paint you poems full of fire,
[00:39.77] you who I do not know.
[00:47.24] Now my mind is tested with love which
[00:52.72] twists and wavers from side to side and which
[00:56.93] some day soon you may see...
[00:59.85] I want you to cascade through ten thousand
[01:05.20] rainbows with me and dredge mountains
[01:12.19] from the sea:
[01:17.00] you who I now begin to know.
[01:24.10] But emotion is pent up inside,
[01:28.42] too scared of dying again to live,
[01:32.35] and meanwhile I must endure your
[01:37.60] red-copper hair screaming like a
[01:40.99] water-baby black eyes stare
[01:47.54] from my ceiling:
[01:53.47] you who I now truly know...
[05:31.61] Now I cannot see too clearly
[05:40.19] and already my trellis stands bare...
[05:47.39] How can I break free of these overclinging
[05:52.91] arms which entwine and enfold me?... And reach
[05:57.81] to the clear blue sea?
[06:00.18] I want you to know, but how can I
[06:04.24] tell you? I want you to see
[06:10.87] but my own eyes are blind...
[06:16.42] The Octopus now enfolds me,
[06:21.76] I know you too well...
