Light is more important than the lantern,
The poem more important than the notebook,
And the kiss more important than the lips.
My letters to you
Are greater and more important than both of us.
They are the only documents
Where people will discover
Your beauty
And my madness.

she was gorgeous, he was mad, but they cared more than we do now

WE are the light, the stuff of which we're made is the lantern. letters are only shadows. to live fully is much more important than to leave some detritus to archaeology -
this is one of the most beautiful piece of philosophical thought.even more beautiful than beauty or Madness.

7/10
I believe there is an error in this line 'The are the only documents' the first 'The' I believe should be 'They'
Another philosophical piece. To me at least. A good one here.
