You never knew the language of the heart,
Never knew the heart's true, aching art.
That no desires exist, a vacant lie,
You never knew the heart, beneath the sky.
Beyond my arms, you venture forth and roam,
Beyond my arms, you seek a distant home.
Beyond my arms, a world that isn't there,
That no desires exist, beyond compare.
You never knew the heart, the soul's deep plea.
No one has seen just smoke, nor fiery blaze,
No one has seen a heart in mournful haze.
No one alone can burn, in solitude,
That no desires exist, misunderstood.
You never knew the heart, the soul's despair.
Your veil holds stars, a shimmering array,
Your veil holds secrets, come what may.
Your veil's vastness, a cosmic sea,
Do any of these belong to me?
That no desires exist, a whispered prayer,
You never knew the heart, beyond compare.
That no desires exist, a fading trace,
You never knew the heart, its sacred space.
