Love Song by Rilkebr br How can I keep my soul in me, so thatbr it doesn't touch your soul? How can I raisebr it high enough, past you, to other things?br I would like to shelter it, among remotebr lost objects, in some dark and silent placebr that doesn't resonate when your depths resound.br Yet everything that touches us, me and you,br takes us together like a violin's bow,br which draws one voice out of two separate strings.br Upon what instrument are we two spanned?br And what musician holds us in his hand?br Oh sweetest song.
