Lord God have mercy on me
by kapardeli eftichia
The light enters from the window
Darkness captures
as charm divine
in your eyes the flames awake
they paint the Love
the uninvited impetus
***
Celestial antefixes
in the banks of affection
and your beauty
a flower each time
where it opens the petals
in the fire that melts the metals
in the sleep that the dreams seized to me
in notes the music of melody
in the crystal peacefulness of prayer
***
God is love
from time I gather this gold
Lord God have mercy on me
small worlds of passion
The cold snow
hands melts
in the all horizons
that wear out the weaknesses
Lord God have mercy on me
