Stranger

I'm walking alone
In dark empty lanes,
Each trace is well-known -
Each belongs to no way.
Here I'm a stranger,
My home is far.
Somewhere my heart waits -
It's right where you are.
Streets meet me with rain,
And cold winds bring just dust.
They know - on this way
There is no one to trust.
I, following my heart,
Try to find the escape
And wonder if you
Still remember and wait.
Through miles even love
Still can't hear your voice,
I give up to destiny -
There is no choice.
It led me to you once -
It can't be severe
To leave me alone,
Day by day wilting here.
It loathes the fear,
And I destiny trust -
I get on my feet,
Putting back all the shards.
My life is a strife,
But my heart is a flame.
A trial is time,
And a torment - each day.
My life is a strife,
But my love is the strength.
I'll find my true home...
When eternity ends.

Where no tyranny is tolerable

How hearts can ride across the (transpersonal) bridge of fog
that still holds us in our separate yet converging lives.
For the time is coming.
The hours are falling.
The circle is closing,
as surely as the rising and setting Sun,
the waxing and waning Moon,
as clear and as strong
as the Heart's desire for two to be as one.
