In its most beautiful perfection



I have dreamt of the fulfillment
   of that I want most,
  In the years of thought,
   I have felt the ecstasy
   of that I want most:

I have passed my hand
over the gleaming steel.
My mark forever in time,
the lights reflection a testament
to my union.

I have felt the ecstasy
 of knowing my work
A thousand years of want
Harmony in perfection.

The simple pass
 that forever changed
history in course,
is forever insignificant.

I have lived
 and gone unnoticed
but when I be gone,
 I am noticed most.
