Blue Crystal Night
Ask me to stem the great Ocean’s Tide
Ask me to halt the Moon’s silver Ride
Ask me to bless the Blind with clear Sight
Ask me to banish all Darkness from Night
Ask me to heal the Wounds of the World
Ask me to find the Oyster’s sweet Pearl
Ask me to live without Water or Air
Ask me to cut off my Breath or my Hair
But ask me not ever to cease loving you
That is the one thing
I never could do.
