Paul Eluard - The Absence

Paul Eluard - The Absence

I speak to you across cities br I speak to you across plains br br My mouth is upon your pillow br br Both faces of the walls come meeting br My voice discovering you br br I speak to you of eternity br br O cities memories of cities br Cities wrapped in our desires br Cities come early cities come lately br Cities strong and cities secret br Plundered of their master's builders br All their thinkers all their ghosts br br Fields pattern of emerald br Bright living surviving br The harvest of the sky over our earth br Feeds my voice I dream and weep br I laugh and dream among the flames br Among the clusters of the sun br br And over my body your body spreads br The sheet of it's bright mirror.
