Is to create your soul
Is to bury your darkest hour
And darkest heart in black earth
Is to love without reservation
And yet survive to love again
I have climbed half a mountain
I sleep above the snow line
And dream a shadow of my past
When I was rich beyond measure
Or knowing
Ecstatic union
Heart open like a window
On the waters of the world
The solace of mutual syncope
She was a rose and a diamond
Filled with fire and holy water
A holy mountain promising
Heaven and love eternal
And a winding path leading
Down into a valley of darkness
