The Lover's Echo
"Morning Requiem" by Anna Maria Drutzel
In you
everything dies and so everything finds – a moment of stillness. Love bereaved of its place and blessing, this body echoes with the resonance of once luminous transcendence. A sheath of skin and eyes like fire, you belonged to infinite horizons – where all was bright and limitless. There where unbridled yearning collided with the unceasing undulation of each day dawning and each night falling. Now tinged with a haunting sorrow – never knowing your hand in mine, your eyes and fingertips upon me. Here in this far distant quarter where the Autumn moon waxes and wanes over a now desolate landscape. There is a tragedy of sacred places, that penetrates a beating heart with dark echoes of once golden words. Now I seek your words on every lover’s lips – rich tapestries of gossamer dreams that carry memories of your soul. Gone the threads that wove you into existence, where none but you can ever exist and here beneath is everything. And yet, here beneath there is nothing – for there is nothing without you but the echo.
