I Once Loved Someone

Put out my eyes, and I can still see you;

Stop up my ears, and I can still hear you;

Without feet, I can walk to you,

Without a mouth, I can still swear my devotion to you;

Break my arms, and I will hold you with my heart as though it were a hand.

Cover my heart, and my mind will go on beating;

You throw a fire into my mind,

And then I will carry you in my blood.
