Letter "S" » shadow
«I was either standing in your shadow, or blocking your light; Though I kept on trying I could not get it right; For you, girl There's just not enough love in the world»
«I am your friend and my love for you goes deep. There is nothing I can give you which you have not got, But there is much, very much, that, while I cannot give it, you can take. No heaven can come to us unless our hearts find rest in today. Take heaven! No peace lies in the future which is not hidden in this present little instant. Take peace! The gloom of the world is but a shadow. Behind it, yet within our reach, is joy.»
