“O Love, O pure deep Love, be here, be now,Be all – worlds dissolve into your stainless endless radiance,Frail living leaves burn with your brighter than cold stares – Make me your servant, your breath, your core.”

“Tenderly, be not impatient, (Strong is your hold O mortal flesh, Strong is your hold O love.)”

“In your room where time stands stillOr moves at your will.Will you let the morning come soon,Or will you leave me lying here?In your favorite darkness,Your favorite half-light,Your favorite consciousness,Your favorite slave.In your room where souls disappearOnly you exist here.Will you lead me to your armchair,Or leave me lying here?Your favorite innocence,Your favorite prize,Your favorite smile,Your favorite slave.In your room your burning eyesCause flames to arise.Will you let the fire die down soon,Or will I always be here?Your favorite passion,Your favorite game,Your favorite mirror,Your favorite slave.I'm hanging on your words,Living on your breath,Feeling with your skin.Will I always be here?”

“My past, O Lord, to Your mercy; my present, to Your love; my future to Your providence.”

“O wandering graves! O restless sleep!O silence of the sunless day!O still ravine! O stormy deep!Give up your prey! Give up your prey!”

“The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your love, O Lord, endures forever - do not abandon the works of your hands.”
