Start:

Her skin will be rose on white. She will come to you, her face close to yours, her breath on your mouth. She will speak words voicelessly, which you will understand because of the movement of her lips on yours.

[... … …]

End:

A gift so wonderful that it will take you through the days and nights until the end of your life … The desire to work.
