&ldquo;When it&#039;s over, I want to say: all my life<br /> I was a bride married to amazement.<br /> I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms. <br /> <br /> When it is over, I don&#039;t want to wonder<br /> if I have made of my life something particular, and real.<br /> I don&#039;t want to find myself sighing and frightened,<br /> or full of argument. <br /> <br /> I don&#039;t want to end up simply having visited this world.&rdquo;

No words can define,

This core rhythm of my mind,

Or the tempos made,

?

Orchestra that played,

In the queer space of my head,

Are merely grotesque,

Although you didn't mean to rhyme, it actually gives more effect to the poem. I love the last line, "Are merely grotesque," It really adds that extra umph to the ending that it needed. Great job with this piece!
