Tonight

Tonight I cry for something higher,

Where not even I can reach.

My mind knows not how to think,

My heart knows not how to beseech.

-

Tonight my eyes are wet

For destruction so far beyond tears.

My sobs are so stony silent-

Sobs only G-d hears.

-

My body is too small and limited

To feel such a spiritual pain.

Only my soul can weep it’s being

And ask an ounce from a lucky vein.

-

Tonight I know and feel with proof,

The spiritual worlds in the higher skies.

For tonight, I can barely feel the grief,

But my spirit weeps and my soul cries.
