It must have been lonely while You were here,
completely man, yet completely apart from man.
Let us speak of the things that for so many years have recessed in hollow caves.
Let us speak of the things long hidden in our hearts,
the words swelled up in the eddies of our souls.
Take what it is that has hindered the eyes from seeing.
Change what it is that has stopped the heart from beating.
Heal what it is that has kept the lungs from breathing.
