It was me,
Peering through the looking-glass,
Beyond the embrace of Christ,
Like the secret face within the tapestry,
Like a bird of prey over the crest,
And she was swathed in sorrow,
As if born within its mask.

Her candlelight snuffed,
The icon smiled,
Emptiness followed by her wake,
I could clasp her in undying love,
Within ghostlike rapture the final word was mine.

She faced me in awe,
That was a token of ebony colour,
Embodied in faint vapour,
Wandering through April's fire,
Compelled to grasp and to hold the one that was you

I will endure,
Hide away,
I would outrun the scythe,
Glaring with failure.

It is a mere destiny I thought,
A threshold I had crossed before.

The rain was waving goodbye,
And when the night came,
the forest folded its branches around me
Something passed by,
And I went into a dream,
She laughing and weeping at once: "Take me away"
I don't know how or why,
I'll never know WHEN.
