Kostrober Even If Thou Gavest Thy Heart to Another

Though thy heart to another was given
And was given so long ago
I shall serve still the Light of Heaven
Yet come to me come even so

Let my verses like blood from arteries run
In a scarlet fierce torrent beneath the sun
Let the reader from thickets of unbelief be free
By the light that is shining through me

Though at times I may no longer need air
And my soul tears its way to the skies
Someone’s spirit shall wake somewhere
And believing in love shall arise

Let my verses like blood from arteries run
In a scarlet fierce torrent beneath the sun
Let the reader from thickets of unbelief be free
By the light that is shining through me

Though my love found no home on this Earth
No shelter beneath mortal skies
Neutron force shall illumine my flesh
And I vanish from mortal eyes

In thy tender and dearly loved hands
I shall leave love’s luminous lines
In the messages no one understands
Thou shalt be my wife for all time

Neutron force shall illumine my flesh
And I vanish into the gloom
I shall vanish into the gloom
Thou shalt be my wife for all time
For all time
