EIDOLON OF LOVE

Another phantom of love that happens unusually to lovers for long time.

EIDOLON OF LOVE

Thought of this life,

But for my single self;

Awakened by the wind,

Amidst the falling leaves;

Whispered from solemn orison,

Before eyes gently opened;

Breathed slowly heart contracted,

As if there was no end.

 

Filched from my heart,

The so-called unconditional love;

Stolen of no powers,

Decreed not ruler of demigods;

Agreed upon within my self,

As comptroller of all things;

To apportion the purest love,

That accorded from intimate feelings.

 

Cherished by undoubted love,

Felt from passionate affection;

Like centered eyes of Vulture,

That charmed the Tamer of Lions;

Earthquakes like I trembled,

After the goddess had said yes!

To the Wildcat’s sovereignty,

That Her love had never dies!

 

Let my verse at last ended,

That my love remained supreme;

Precious mystery the Codex revealed,

Zion coexisted for the love of beings;

Love stayed though Author killed,

Flesh decayed for awaiting old;

Thou should not forget me,

The noblest savants of my world.
