You won’t stay all night?
The muted, inarticulate
despair these few words contained.
The unheard, unnoticed, unregistered cry of
loneliness which arises from human beings.
And not a loneliness which could be
appeased with one night,
or with a thousand nights, or with a lifetime, or with
a marriage.
A loneliness that human beings could not fill. For it came from her
separation from human beings. She felt her separation from human beings and
believed the lover alone could destroy it.
When all
is right between us, I can bear my life.
