You, who like the moon at night

Haunted my mortal heart ...



You who made this ancient walls

Shine like divine marble



The unwanted breath - through creedence

A derelict shell in the desert



- Mesmerised -

As love inflamed the night

Burning tongues brought the rain

The sand remained - purified



Murmur at the meager's spear

Battered Carthagian pride

The beloved cry - wasted dismay

Invasion of baseness and shade



You, loved by your father

Innocent as a vestal - dove



Buried in a deep blue sea

As we all lose - ever
