"Need Will Drive Us Out"

You are quiet as death, my friend

I have found the same, my friend

My sorry face and hands will bend

Fate for this emptiness between

If it's neither treasure to you, Dear,

Tell me what you're still doing here

Let your heart become a stone well, a mirror

Deep as the universe

For in you I see every light in the sky,

With every color of the rainbow's dye,

Like a waterfall flowing to purify,

And all so thrilling I could stay.

And whenever I see you, wherever, somehow,

We are standing on sunbeams in clouds

With less than a drop of feral doubt

That the darkest need will drive us out.
