-
you're used to protecting people and shielding them from pain,
-
and suddenly you've got to tell a woman you love
-
something that will crucify her.
-
The temptation to deny yourself,
-
to go on sacrificing your own happiness, to go on living a lie,
-
it must've been overwhelming but you didn't succumb,
-
you did it, and I'm so proud of you for that, my darling,
-
so proud of you.

Young Simon used to lie in bed at night...
-
..praying not to wake up.
-
"To cease upon the midnight with no pain."
-
But he kept waking up.
