			<title>Reflections</title>

			<title>A Remembrance</title>
			<description>... And as the memories of our time together shatter my reality, I am left to ponder the meaning of tragedy. Was it not a splendorous victory that our hearts pounded furiously in perfect harmony, or was it that such perfect synthesis was against the very nature of this world?
