32. Unsilenceable
We are one soul together, you and I,
but that I have already told you.
How, then, shall I vary this tremendous truism,
this self-evident manifestation fact of love,
this inexhaustible resource and treasure
of the most infinite energy and power,
this fantastic marvel of two souls becoming one?
My love is inexpressible, because it is too true
to stand a definition and can therefore never be pinned down,
like all true love, that is too vulnerable
in its delicacy to be comprehensible
to anyone except its two exclusive sharers.
So shall I keep silent then about it?
That is thoroughly impossible, because,
as Jesus said himself, if human calls are silenced,
then the rocks will cry instead, and, in our case,
even mountains, continents, the sea,
the sun and moon and all the planets of the universe.
