How pure a heart
That beats to the dying breath of another
Vowed, sworn, tied to him
Salt tears in the palm, swirl in the blood
His blood
Pieces of me perish with pieces of him
The battle comes back
A silent montage of my love, what a form
The bravest spine, neck high with pride,
Lips a thin line, curved just for you,
Eyes, ablaze with hope and no regrets,
So unfair, so unfair
Soldier down,
A good man weathered,
The worst comes a-knocking
Crimson paints your arm
The scathing truth trampled under your feet
Blame the flick of an arrogant wrist
That took you away,
But I’ll always be yours
Broken and bruised,
My heart is yours,
Alone in a garden of corpses,
I am yours,
In your Malaysian dreams,
I’m yours,
And if death wants you first, I’ll want you more
If peace is what you crave, I’ll burn for better
History will know your name, and I’ll know you
So always remember,
I am yours.
The worst is over now
Open your eyes, my dear
The soft sand awaits
I got it from here…

Because i feel like i might be overestimating what the average is, i shall Conduct Research
This isn't about how many languages you speak, but how many youre able to count up to at least 10 in, since basic numbers are some of the first words you learn in a foreign language and sometimes you catch them without having studied the language at all

Accessibility tip:
If you want to automate your home a bit, but you don't want any "smart" tech, you can just buy remote controlled power sockets instead
They are a lot cheaper and easier to set up and use than some home automation smart tech nonsense
They don't need an app (but some models come with optional apps and there are apps that are compatible with most of these)
Many of them use the 433mhz frequency to communicate, which makes most models compatible with each other, even if they are from different manufacturers
The tech has been around for a long time and will be around for a long time to come
You don't have to put any fucking corporate listening devices like an amazon echo in your home
Models for outdoors exist as well

How many stand-alone works do you own written by a single author?
take "stand-alone work" to mean books not related as a series, the series can count as one work (ie me owning all of NK Jemisin's Broken Earth Trilogy and The City We Became would count as two stand-alone works, even though it's 4 books). Owning multiple copies also only counts as 1 stand-alone work, sorry edition-hoarders
