Spread your palm br and place me on it, br softly like a dew-drop. br Close your fist br and your eyes br and feel me transpire. br Caress me in your dreams. br Shudder your being, br and destroy me in yourself. br Open your fist br and your eyes br and find me gone, br in faraway lands. br Spread my ashes in corners of earth br like a spirit br of forgotten ages. br Still feel me in your veins br and see my face in the wetness br on your palm, br in the glistening tranquillity. br And in the purity therein, br my soul, reflected.
