O'Beloved, O'Child

On the day I died,

I turned to my lover and bid him farewell

 

My love with eyes like crystal gems

How pitiful am I

O’Beloved, how I cry for you

 

High in heaven I begged God

To see you once more,

My woes; like tears, they fell

But O’Child,

He laughed

 

Consoled me with kisses

Upon my eyes

For only a God may see

Those who have not and yet have to exist

 

All alone I am

Waiting for you to join me,

My heart it does despair

 

I look around,

I search for you

I ask myself, why did the devil fall?

 

Wait for me as I,

Take God’s hand

Up to my mouth

All that light inside of me

 

I nearly forgot

It’s been too long my dear

Who else but us to remember

The God who was

The God who is now

 

Like sweet honey in my throat

My voice, a beacon, calls out

 

There you are my dear

Have you forgotten?

Oh,

how I’ve longed for this moment

 

Walk with me child

Dearly sweet beloved,

O’Lover of mine

 

Drink from my hand, gaze upon me

Honeyed sweet

My love, my light, my memories

 

My reason for being,

The being of my life

Let me love you until I cannot stand

 

Allow me to see with kisses on my lids,

O’Great and mighty,

You have and yet have to fall,

 

Bring your hand up to my mouth,

My sweet beloved

Do not forget

How I claim to be yours
