Rainer Maria Rilke - Narcissus

Rainer Maria Rilke - Narcissus

Encircled by her arms as by a shell, br she hears her being murmur, br while forever he endures br the outrage of his too pure image... br br Wistfully following their example, br nature re-enters herself; br contemplating its own sap, the flower br becomes too soft, and the boulder hardens... br br It's the return of all desire that enters br toward all life embracing itself from afar...
