    The One

     One could decide to count the days as lost,
    as times to be regretted, best forgot,
    best relegated down to vaults to rot--
    but I will not.

    For You were with me in those vague hours,
    throwing myself down from tall towers,
    heedless of a Truth behind the power--
    a Love unsoured.

    A Love in the shape of a man, no less,
    covered in blood, but in Love He is dressed.
    literally dying to hear me say, "Yes--
    You've loved me best."

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
