In the deep of the night
In the deep of the night
there is a fathomless silence
of stars shining bright for eternity,
irreducible lights that never go out,
like our love, the miraculous light of which
more is like some profound uncompromising enigma
that never can be either solved or divined
in its incomprehensible darkness
concealing a starlight of more potent light
than the brightest of all heaven outshining stars.
Shall we try to approach, comprehend and get down to it?
No, for the answer to its distant irony and ambiguity
is maybe as obvious as ever in all heaven's stars,
that they shine best the further away
we are kept from their mystery.
