"Would that my words could make it right / Could make your heart beat as it should"
Transcendental Sonnet #1190:
Night-Blooming Rose of Ecstasy
for Silke so sick so sad so sweet
Would that my words could make it right
Could make your heart beat as it should
So hard to find the words tonight
But I would tell you if I could
How you are everything to me
My mother child and destiny
From sorrow joy from pain delight
My lover without you I see
No hope for me to be nor would
Nor could I stay with you away
From me I see no future here
Apart from you: come back and be
My light within this night of fear
