Tibet by Juxxtaposed published on 2024-04-27T00:49:31Z Let deeper silence shield the deeper rapture Hardly our eyes reveal the inward bliss Sealed by no speech and shadowed by no kiss Love is no wizard to elude recapture In the strong prison of his silences Let deeper silence shield the deeper rapture Twin souls are we, to one Star bound in Heaven Twin souls on earth by earthly bars divided But, did thy spirit glide as mine has glided Straight to That Star—no rose-leaves ask to leaven The manna that the Moon of Love provided Twin souls are we, to one Star bound in Heaven Not to thy presence in the veil and vision Of solemn lies that men miscall the world Not to thy mind the lightnings truthward hurled I turn. I laugh dead distance to derision Spirit to spirit: there our loves are curled Not to thy presence in the veil and vision Beyond the gold and glamour of Life’s lotus The flower that falls from this our stronger sight We dwell, eternal shapes of shadowy light Only the love on earth that shook and smote us Begets new stars—truth’s flowers fallen through night Beyond the gold and glamour of Life’s lotus Eternal bliss of Love in birthless bowers Light, the gemmed robes of Love! Life, lifted breath Ageless existence deifying death Love, the sole flower beyond these lesser flowers In thee at last the live fruit quickeneth Eternal bliss of Love in birthless bowers There, secret! Know it! Now forget Betray not Wisdom unto Folly Less sweet is Joy than Melancholy Why should our eyes for this be wet Enough: be silent and be holy There, secret! Know it! Now forget Now I have told thee that I love thee To me our Star in Heaven burning Tells me thy heart as mine is yearning Tells me Love’s fragrance stolen -Aleister Crowley TANNHÄUSER - A Story Of All Time Genre Rock Comment by Bluedesire 🇮🇷💫💞 🔥 2024-05-01T00:58:32Z
