  • SIGHING IN YOUR LAP


     

    I look upon thy flaming holy eyes with a whispering, mystery-filled heavenly desire; while thou, full of buds, open to me, the immortal wreath of the All-ness descends on thy angelic soul's threshold. Thou canst feel, if I sin for thee: how soothing and harmonious rest Thy lap humbly calls to thee, that I may lay down my much-haunted childish head.

    Existence is already more wearied, wherein two vibrant, piercing mirrors of thy troubled eyes rub like soft pairs against my wounded soul with scandalizing sweetness. Say, how can I thank thee, blessed earthly star, That with thy unselfish, tame goodness thou dost ever welcome the disconsolate wailer, the homeless? Deep in thy crimson-flame heart-cradle thou hast laid me, And what could I have consciously reached, Thou hast stood like an angel firmly guarding me!

    O my only dear saviour! Merciful, immortal Dear! As in the wandering wanderings of my imagined dreams, When I came to crossroads with trembling knees to choose, Thy holy will, holy as a pallor, Protected me in my easily shaken, yet for thee firm faith. Now it's good to flirt with your modern, fairy-pretty photograph, knowing you may be thinking of me. In our smouldering, fallible hearts The chords of Time wove a lasting bliss, While our love sought to temper the indifference of our aimlessness. My shadowy, honeyed, drooping soul in the pool of thy blessed smile Oft dips and floats unconscious.

    Till this petty, wicked world, with its murderous daggers, slyly stabs me in the back, and thus, with my common fate, I am thy loving prisoner to the death, one and all, thy camel's endless camel's end! Oh, my darling! Forgive this thy faithful knight, if I would have called thee my redeeming spouse, for patient goodness dwells in thee!
