"Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy's first Law of Equivalent Exchange."

The wind brushed by my cheek,
It sent me your regards,
Each moment I re-lived,
A stitch within my heart.

It sent me your regards,
The moon up in the sky,
A stitch within my heart,
A crack that slowly repaired.

The moon up in the sky,
My face illuminated bright,
A crack that slowly repaired,
As a tear splashed the stone.

My face illuminated bright,
Each moment I re-lived,
As a tear splashed the stone,
The wind brushed by my cheek.
