Mihaela Pirjol Poems

In weakness and in fear,
In doubt and trembling
Like a lost child
With a heavy heart;
...

My heart—a stranger to our love;
It does not recognise us anymore:
Our love—its devastation.
...

We are suckling-babies at the nipples of this planet,
with a ceaseless, insatiate voraciousness for life;
all the sap of Earth: all the lactation of the Mother-Meteor!
...

Your fluid gazes, like the ebb and flow of desire:
You are bathing my body in your oceanic eyes…
Touching and caressing, holding it with your thoughts:
I feel naked, and vulnerable as a timid virgin;
...

My love! —if you come to me
To vanish yourself in my light;
To unify our senses in a sweet delight,
We will define our love: 'To Be! '
...

one
two
bodies linger
heavy with relaxation
...

Near the willows by the brook:
There is where as a child I used to play
With children from my neighbourhood,
When everything was magic, and so gay:
...

My heart belongs to me and only me.
It is not selfishness, only the need to be
Free from attachment, and desire-free.
...
