To My Husband, I’m sorry LylaCerulli I‟m sorry. I‟m so sorry. <strong>The</strong>re‟s just so much I can‟t tell you. I can‟t tell you how I was born in one century and managed to die in the one before. I can‟t explain to our son that I‟ll never be able to come back. Something went wrong, and everything went to black. I‟m not even sure if I‟m dead. But I‟m certainly not alive. What‟s going to happen to our Jamie? He‟s alive, as far as I know. I was there when he was born. Wasn‟t I? Tell me our son is alive. I can‟t die. If I die, I never would have met you. And Jamie was never born. If I die now, a lifetime of research, inventions, and every ugly thing I could have done… is gone. No, I won‟t die. Please, keep Jamie alive. If you keep him in your memory, he won‟t disappear. He can‟t. I won‟t let that happen. I‟m sorry, but I won‟t be able to help you with this one, darling. Just keep our son alive. I‟ll work on existing.
Violin of Pain Lyla Cerulli My razor is my bow, My arm is my violin, Spilling out notes of red. Tendons tremble Bringing vibrato to red. Up and down, back and forth, Strings are painted Strings are smudged As the strings bleed Spilling out notes of red. My punishment for living Manifests through the notes Bleeding down my arms. But my punishment Is a gift To all of humanity.
