Light of Tear

tear

How do I want to change my thought into season

When the letters in their interest sound

Like the light beam between the balks,

Like your eyelash under the moon rays ?!

 

How would I carry the silence from the snow

Just as much as near your window to pause,

To heal the waiting and to forgive

The burden of tear that still remains to me ?!

Iosif Băcilă, Lumina lacrimii

translated from Romanian by Marcel Rus
