Love Poem: Deep Sublime Aching of My Soul

Deep Sublime Aching of My Soul

Deep sublime aching of my soul,
The fount of all perfection,
My source of life and memory,
The cause of my direction-
Why must one suffer so much pain?
What person gained so great a goal,
And found in their loving true perfection,
Yet nothing of their life is stole?
I am unworthy of this distinction,
Deep sublime aching of my soul.
