Metamorphoses [Part I]
As seeds grow in the nursery of earth, there where life is born. Their path is forged
Leaves and animals then rejoice in the abundant nourishment, celebrating the coming
Of nature’s innocence, it’s wealth. And denounce its begotten scourge!
And forget its wretched darkness, always looming, always doming
I beg of you, please tell me. How is it that you know?
How is it that you know a flower needs a butterfly to survive?
Do you know as they just do?
And do they cherish it like you and I?
—o—
For the time again has come, my beloved, to live the intendment of life
Radiating from our sun, like that of a child who is yet not born
To breathe in love, the one that exists as rife as it is immortal
The one that is free and cloaks under endless forms,
As there are no real words for happiness and life,
For the very letters of the words linger in the boundaries of a fatalistic nick
Failing to carry their gist and duty as that of a candlestick made to light the galaxy,
Or the use of powerful spirits in curing the inebriate
Alas, nothing can truly describe what I feel as we converse, bond and lust
Perhaps an oneness that frightens and enlightens my soul in such scale
With a passion like that of a stampeding tempest but yet so chaste that I to God himself I trust
To pledge my heart to be sealed in yours, as otherwise my existence would surely fail
And lose the simpleness of it all,
The scent of a blooming rose, the majesty of a rainbow or of my love
As they all subsist within me through the balance of your smile.
You are my verse, my white dove!
A treasure that saves me, keeping me away from my warring precedents
You are my first rain of the season, cleansing away fears. You are an Angel
And my element, and forever my hope’s spile
As without you my dear in my every morrow, I would play in a tragedy
In which I‘ve already perished
My dawn would never come, and my being would lie frozen in the perpetuity of death
As you’re all that I am and more
And you are all of these, all without motioning a purpose!
You are my candle and my glow.
Thus now as our time has finally come and bowed,
To live and nourish
With what we’ve been endowed
It is our time to flourish, yes! That is what I see
Spring, my love, come to me, and thus may it be
