hush, hush, oh heart,
wake not the world with your ranting and raving;
the moon for which you long can hear you
even in your occasional silence,
like a sound wave tearing through space
towards the eardrum of some distant, blissful place.
hush, hush, oh heart,
your secret is safe with me. The key
is hidden in every atom of every drop
of every instant that you pound ferociously
against the four walls of Death;
one day the moon will find you
And set free the music in your muscles.
hush, hush, oh heart,
bring me the dizzy sugar of warm blood,
fill my veins, fill my mind
with the liquid substance of the Self,
infuse my lungs with goodness and passion.
I promise that one day the Moon will find you
And set free the music in your muscles.
until then, hush, hush, oh heart!
and wake not the world with your ranting and raving.
