Novice.
They claim to see this light
A most resplendent sight
Yet it has escaped my vision
...
The profound sound of silence,
the emotions behind a still face,
the wrinkles caused by laughter,
the depth in their gaze.
...
The lonely night and I,
With soul-fury afire,
Consummate our thought-love,
Quenching our desire.
...
She is not within my grasp,
she has graced me by her touch.
I have heard her silent whispers
and felt her tender clutch.
...
The watch stares at me broken,
Time lying still.
Thinking, thinking, dreaming.
