Dark One,
how can I sleep?
Since you left my bed
the seconds drag past like epochs,
each moment
a new torrent of pain.
I am no wife,
no lover comes through the darkness—
lamps, houses, no comfort.
On my couch
the embroidered flowers
pierce me like thistles,
I toss through the night.
Yet who would believe my story?
That a lover
bit my hand like a snake,
and the venom bursts through
and I’m dying?
I hear
the peacock’s faraway gospel,
the nightingale’s love song,
the cuckoo—
thickness on thickness folds through the sky,
clouds flash with rain.
Dark One, is there no love
in this world
that such anguish continues?
Mirabai waits for a
glance from your eye.
