The Secret
There was never anything between us except love,
but that sufficed for an eternity,
and let us keep it that way,
let's remain in love and cherish it
in adoration and soft kindness
without any disharmonics out of tune
and keep the melody of beauty flowing,
the most beautiful in all existence
that can never reach its end or fulfilment
but ever must increase and be prolonged
in beauty and in longing and in perfect understanding.
Thus we shall stand forth in time
against intrusions and false chords of insolence
and be a paragon of lovers
just by keeping our love our own and on its own
like some professional outstanding secret
just for masters to obtain and manage
well with care to keep the art and skill in session
unsurpassed and perfect for all future generations
to just wonder at and ask: "How did they do it?"
