Woman In White
The body I wore changed in the palace,
my image became something less distinct
yet, behind the veil, my youth shined from within
And, with smiling eyes, I took her hand.
Here, finally, I recognized her in this light
Here, finally, I arrived to rejoin my beloved
Where she waited beyond the limit of my dreams
Where she, with patience and love, guided me.
Am I her lover, playing these body lessons down below?
In this finer place, our greater memory returns,
our thousand forms of loving bodies, merging.
And I can reach out with my own light to know her heart,
and revel in its comforts, cascading through me.
