I Cannot Be Known

I cannot be known

Better than you know me

Your eyes in which we sleep

We together

Have made for my man's gleam

A better fate than for the common nights

Your eyes in which I travel

Have given to signs along the roads

A meaning alien to the earth

In your eyes who reveal to us

Our endless solitude

Are no longer what they thought themselves to be

You cannot be known

Better than I know you.
