I speak only of
Life.
And you say your eyes only perceive death.
With whose eyes
does a blind man
perceive?
Only Love can
perceive.
Only Love can
give,
the One breath
that causes Life.
I speak only of
Life.
That Life shall,
Pierce my heart
forever Lord,
lest I should
forget.
By whose eyes
this blind woman
perceives,
and by whose
spirit
this woman is
wrought from within.
