Ecstasy and Longing

[…] and this sadness 

I feel has taken from me the taste of language,

so that I can’t say the flavor 

of my being apart. The roof 

of the kingdom within has collapsed!

When I say the word you, I mean 

a hundred universes.

Pouring grief of water, or secret dripping 

in the heart, eyes in the head or eyes 

of the soul, I saw yesterday

that all these flow out to find you,when you’re not here.
