Lamento II (From the book Sea Lust)
Mother of all
hold me to your bosom
one more time I pray.
Take my hand
caress my neck
with your ethereal touch
that soothes the searing pain.
Let me rest, forget,
pacify the night
so dark!
Demons lurk, bloodied
piercing eyes of scorn
disgrace abounds
and all along
foolish friends sing and dance.
From deceit the truth reborn!
Let us go then
take my hand
the eternal waves
keep endless time
in our world, our sea
sand between our toes
clouds where angels sing
velvety soft and warm.
Feels like home
the genuine for us
no borrowed crown shall do!
And Oh, your touch
the glow, aura, splendor
sanctuary for saints and sinners
purity for all
devotion, love, in splendid candor.
Fill my cup with love,
sweet nectar of your essence.
Let me gaze into your
emerald tearless jewels
that I scorn to share
like the moon and stars
are theirs, so I must bear
the stranger's turn
the fortunate souls
that fate has graced
with your blessed eyes
and golden smile.
Your face is time
mother of all.
I cherish the thought
you're mine!
