Someday I shall tell of your mysterious births:

Buzzing around cruel smells,
Gulfs of shadow; E, white innocence of vapors and of tents,

Silences crossed by Worlds and by Angels;
- O the Omega, the violet ray of her Eyes! — Arthur Rimbaud

Or when you're still young, with your whole life still ahead of you? — Ali Sheikh
