The Last Word
written by: Welkin Siskin
Lest I discover you not
In the realm of my heart,
I give in all to touch thy souls.
Man’s life is replete with yearnings and goals;
Our life without subtle care is unvaried,
And our stories without sharing are miscarried.
We long for what’s not
And these longings we know go
And in these yearnings— full of wishes— we discover ways whatever it be
To attain the last word and sublimity.
