When I woke,
Excited,
Ablaze in that starry dream,
Words,
God spoke,
Lying naked in the cold stream,
Where love's legions ruined us,
That mighty two edged sword,
Piercing our pounding hearts,
Such a terrible fuss,
Oh Lord! Oh good Lord!
Swift currents have swept us far apart,
Our love has been submerged and drowned,
Every rapid and every barrage,
Sweeping love away,
Such a hazardous undertow,
Deep into unknown depths,
Where the world is blind,
Heartstrings entangle us so,
Captivating love is seldom kind.
