Life By Light |
I look to your heart |
Seen only in part |
But then I’ve |
Shared both it’s gloom |
And its laughter |
We search of the same |
And crawling |
We lurch for its flame |
But sprawling |
We lay in the dark |
Awaiting answers |
Answers |
It’s taken us years |
So many tears were falling |
Washing away all that mattered |
Remembered at last — desire |
A spark from our past, a fire |
That rose from our midst and left us longing |
At times we see it almost clearly |
At times it fades before our eyes |
The glimpse withdrawn |
The world turns common |
It’s out of reach until we name it |
Searing light now come light |
Beyond the deeps of time I remember a place |
In the cool of evening we walked, life by life |
Up the storm-swept heights we climbed |
As if our doom followed |
Men may mock |
Climb, though men may mock |
Longing for things |
Never even named, never seen by man |
Some transcendency, some desire divine |
If it — if it can be longed for surely |
Surely it must exist |
Climb with me till we see those heights |
They must exist — they must exist |
Longing, sweet desire |
If we search for something not of earth |
Then we search out this cold rock in vain |
