Ineffability



Catch me not when I fall.

When I sink, do not hold me.

Till death, fly;

Be my reason to rise.

 

Pity me not when I despair.

With my melancholy, do not empathise.

Till death, rejoice;

Be my reason to smile.

 

Chase me not when I flee.

When I hide, do not seek me.

Till death, stay;

Be my reason to return.

 

Calm me not when I rage.

When I seethe, do not douse me.

Till death, love;

Be my reason for peace.

 

Mourn me not when I die.

When I perish, do not weep.

Till death, —

Be my reason to live.
