Under the weight of your words, I wander through their shadow
Under the weight of your words, I wander through their shadow,
Hunted by mystery, torn into pieces, then enriched in a secret dawn.
Suddenly alone and embraced, I sway between two worlds,
A pilgrim in tears, bowing in the echo of your divine voice.
I wish you could see through the mist as my eyes do - a landscape of beauty... and pain,
I cannot bear the burden of the world without you, come, intertwine yourself with my soul, be my poem.
Savor my essence, break me into fragments... reveal me,
Until you find me empty, resting in the light of your love, embraced in the abyss.
Drinking greedily from the garden of my secrets, pause at every branch, at every flower,
Open me up, spread my wings, let me fly freely, towards the sun.
Scattered are the pieces of myself, like leaves carried by the wind,
But you gather them, plant the stopped time, and make me whole, fearless.
You transform fragments of stars into dust, soothing my deepest fears,
In you, I find the map of the heart, expanding with rays of daylight.
Like rivers merging into a single course, I long to flow into you,
To melt into each other, to become the sea submerged in the warmth we share in tranquility.
With you, I can be a stream, a spring, and an ocean, I can embrace the fears of the past,
But in the abyss of your love, all those shortcomings burn, knowing myself as absolute.
Your words are the sacred wine of a silent communion,
It is our communion, an eternal covenant that carries us beyond this harsh world.
