Don’t cry for me for heavens will now smile
16 August 2015
When you loved me then I became all Love
So I may feel fires in your bosom
I was your moon and your sorrow-filled dove
I was your flower never to blossom
When your heart ached I became all heartache
So I may be one with all of your pangs
And none of this could ever make me quake
Not even the thoughts of death’s sharpened fangs
Divided by such a thin paper wall
Between the nothingness and everything
Absorbing Love lessens shock of the fall
My Love, my light, my prince, nay say my King
As I wither into eternal sigh
My arms heavy cloaked in loss of morrow
Your Love lends me bliss and hopes oh so high!
Of more time, just time that I could borrow
Time still marble would not lend me a while
And as I croak, throat parched by your absence
“Don’t cry for me for heavens will now smile”
Again I choke on your renewed fragrance
