A Lover’s Cry

Cry

O! I cry

Cry

O! Cry, O! Cry

My tender tears fall from the sky

Thine is the earth that bears my cry

From beneath the crust of my heart

A fault within my cardiac part

Pain, the cracks piercing my walls

With crystal plates; chambers within motion

Brushing one another in my transform

Cry

O! I cry

Cry

O! Cry, O! Cry

Mine, a union in convergent

Mine, aloofness in divergent

My love like a molten stream uplifts

Your hands a Richter scale you give reach

So upon my hot bosom these hands may rest

The energy within my release you test

A wail from me is like a seismic wave

Quivers through my heart institutes a grave
