I cannot be known by Paul Eluard

I cannot be known
Better than you know me 

Your eyes in which we sleep
We together
Have made for my man’s gleam
A better fate than for the common nights 

Your eyes in which I travel
Have given to signs along the roads
A meaning alien to the earth 

In your eyes who reveal to us
Our endless solitude 

Are no longer what they thought themselves to be 

You cannot be known
Better than I know you.

Virtutes & Vitia

About

I am not merely described by the letters in my name, but by the verses in my poetry.

Do not try to guide me, maybe I won't follow you.
Do not try to follow me, maybe I won't guide you.
Walk beside me, and you can be another friend.
