Oh, I'd rather

             
 go and journe

             
y, where the d

              
iamond crescen

    
t's flowing an

d
             
run across the

            
 valley, benea

              
th the sacred 


mountain and
             
wander through

            
 the forest 
             
Where the tree

              
s have leaves 

      
of prisms, and

 break the lig

ht in colors,
             
that no one kn

             
ows the names 

     
of 

             
And when it's 

             
time I'll go, 

             
and wait besid

          
e a legendary 

fountain,
             
till I see you

             
r form reflect

             
ed in it's cle

       
ar and jeweled

 waters;
             
and if you thi

             
nk I'm ready
             
You may lead m

              
e to the chasm

 
, where the ri

vers of our vi

sion,
             
flow into one 

        
another

I will want to

             
 die beneath, 

             
the white casc

      
ading waters,
             
she may beg, s

             
he may plead, 

             
she may argue 

         
with her logic

;
             
and mention al

              
l the things I

              
'll lose
     
That really ha

ve no value, i
