No, don't leave me, my love.

You don't understand.

I need you here, with me.

A thousand words left unsaid,

A hundred feelings left ignored.

The gods sent you to me,

But you turned away

No, do not leave, my love

You don't understand

A prisoner in my own home

For all eternity

Please, have pity

Have pity

I have experienced happiness

Finally

For a few days

I have laughed

Finally

For the first time

No, do not leave, my love

You don't understand

You have provided a window

To the world beyond

Which I have forgotten

I need you here

Please

No, do not leave, Odysseus, my love

You don't understand
