I will carry, now, a hollowed bone in which to hold this newly blazing heart, in the form of a live ember, and mind, for as long as I live, that is never extinguished; I will do whatever it takes to protect it from the howling winds and driving rain.
This bone will hang from my body through every moment, it's constant tugging a reminder of what must be done and for what.
For if it is forgotten, discarded or allowed to diminish into dust amidst every other smoking pile of the past, all has been for nothing, and as such will continue to be forever. Without this persitent light there is only perpetual darkness.
