Re-Statement of Romance
The night knows nothing of the chants of the night
It is what it is as I am what I am
And in perceiving this I best perceive myself
And you. Only we two may interchange
Each in the other what each has to give.
Only we two are one, not you and night,
Nor night and I, but you and I, alone
So much alone, so deeply by ourselves,
So far beyond the casual solitudes
That night is only the background of our selves,
Supremely true each to its separate self
In the pale light that each upon the other throws.
