The Lie of Loneliness
You'll never be alone
as long as you just love another,
which is just accepting some responsibility
of someone else's life as well as yours.
That other will then be with you
not sticking right under your skin
but all the closer stay within your soul
in even closer steadier contact
than by a physical approach,
which tempts to aberrations
like misunderstandings and illusions,
while the soul alone will always be the same.
If you have got her soul inside you
you can never lose her, but she will remain
your company forever if you love her,
and there never could be any finer company.
