A Spirit's Cry Poem by Mihaela Pirjol

A Spirit's Cry

Rating: 5.0


On what to live when Love is leaving? —
On memories, to feed the reminiscence?
In silent desperation dreaming of a dream,
Deaf I have become to my bosom's scream:

‘Now is your life! —now is your life!
Now at the middle of your life:
If you are blind to the Future of today,
You are already dead as your gone days! '

But if I feel no love and neither pain, —
How can I believe in Love again?
How can I tell that I am alive?
When a peculiar stranger dwells inside?

‘O! Do not worry, my dear child,
That life sometimes may seem unkind,
The hidden love that you possess,
It shall reveal its mystery: you'll be impressed! '

I need to feel ecstatic with emotions!
I need a mad love as the tumultuous oceans!
I need the tears—the tears I cried:
I need to feel alive before I die!

‘Embrace my Light with faith, open the door:
Incommensurate Love—yours is to explore! '

If love leaves mind fees sorrow. If love holds a person feels goodness. Feeling love with emotion matters a lot. Embracing Godl's love. This we have to explore. An interesting poem is nicely penned.10

This poem is certainly an interior monologue but it's cast as a dialogue between the lost soul lamenting a failed love and what appears to be a wise compassionate listener. The first thing that struck me is the passionate nature of the central character. The emotions that were directed to her lover are still roiling inside of her, but they have no object. This convinces me of her worthiness to receive love if indeed it is a gift from an outside force. And the other person's confidence she will love again is confirmed by either the the persistence of her passionate nature or the blessing of that outside force. She is either creating her fate out of her pure devotion to love or makng herself ready to receive it as a gift.
