Only You1994

Faith:
You are here.

Peter:
Yes, I am here, and very real. God! I'm trying to think — there's this poem by, um, Goethe? … yeah, Goethe, and its about two people come from different places, but they hear the same bird singing…

Faith:
"perhaps the same bird echoed through both of us yesterday, separate, in the evening"†

Peter:
That's it. Exactly.

Faith:
Wow. [pauses, gazing into his eyes] Yeah … It was Rilke.

Peter:
Rilke? [she nods] Oh well, same country... how'd you know?

Faith:
I could tell you some things.

†:
Faith here quotes Rilke's "You Who Never Arrived", as translated by Stephen Mitchell
