<br>Why am I <br> always one heart too many <br> over the threshold of the truth <br>I had to leave home to discover? <br> Am I a hoax in tears <br> or a tear away from a gate and a rafter? <br>Let the wave know the sea <br> that packs its caravan on the moon, <br> let the silence of the waking abyss <br>write indelible preludes <br> with a last kiss<br> that goes on forever <br>like the white autumn wind<br>in a turmoil of seeds<br> that demonically exceed <br>the life they're after, <br> flower by flower, <br> death by death<br>like the pulse of a bell <br> setting the doves free <br> in the towers of farewell.<br>It's the eloquence of a tree <br> to say what life is <br> when the full moon ripens <br>in its leafless branches <br> and the heart beats <br> like a windfall of silver apples, <br>though I have tried, <br> but love is a bridge <br> on a finger of water <br>that not even the moon <br> can slip off like a ring <br> when the wind rises<br>like a gaping fish <br> to swallow the chimes and eyehooks <br> of its matriculate ripples.<br>And with each breath of the night <br> I took and returned, <br> I have aspired to succeed <br>at every failure I was ever inspired by.<br> I raised every sail, <br> crossed every wave, <br>every eyelid, every petal<br> of the sea of life <br> in the heart of the rose<br>only to dropp the first crescent of the moon <br> like an anchor <br> in the furnace of a dream.</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Patrick+White">Patrick White</a><div class=q> <img src="https://www.citatepedia.ro/g/32share.png" style="float:left" alt="Share"> <script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=citatepedia" async="async"></script><div style="display:inline-block" class="addthis_sharing_toolbox" data-url="http://en.citatepedia.ro/comments.php?id=476574" data-title="Feel Like There's A Beast de Patrick White" data-description="Feel like there's a beast in the darkness eating my eyes.
