THE NIGHT is upon me. My desires that wandered all day have come back to my heart like the murmur of the sea in the still evening air. One lonely lamp is burning in my house in the dark. The silence is in my blood. I shut my eyes and see in my heart the beauty that is beyond all forms.
I THREW AWAY my heart in the world; you took it up. I sought for joy and gathered sorrow, you gave me sorrow and I found joy. My heart was scattered in pieces, you picked them up in your hand and strung them in a thread of love. You let me wander from door to door to show me at last how near you are. Your love plunged me into the deep trouble. When I raised my head I found I was at your door.
