When your eyes are tired
the world is tired also.
When your vision has gone
no part of the world can find you.
Time to go into the dark
where the night has eyes to recognize its own.
There you can be sure
you are not beyond love.
The dark will be
your womb tonight.
The night will give you a horizon
further than you can see.
You must learn one thing.
The world was made to be free in.
Give up on all other worlds
except the one to which you belong.
Sometimes it takes darkness
and the sweet confinement of
your aloneness to learn,
anything or anyone
that does not bring you alive
is too small for you.
