[last lines]
Arthur Rimbaud: I've found it. What? Eternity. It's the sun mingled with the sea.

Arthur Rimbaud: [to Verlaine] We should make a bargain. You help me... and I'll help you. If we go away together, I'm sure you'll be able to start doing good work again. And when we've taken as much as we can from each other...
[Moves closer to Verlaine]
Arthur Rimbaud: We simply split up and move on.
Paul Verlaine: And how would we live?
Arthur Rimbaud: Well, you have some money, don't you?
[Chuckles]
Paul Verlaine: I understand. I help you by supporting you...
[Between a laugh]
Paul Verlaine: And you help me by renewing my rusty, old inspiration. Is that it?
Arthur Rimbaud: [Smiles, puts his hand to Verlaine's face and strokes it] You hold it all together.
[He moves toward his mentor and kisses him. Verlaine looks at him in shock, but the young teenage poet only smiles. Paul leans to him and they kiss passionately]
