“بیتوته‌ی کوتاهی‌ست جهان
در فاصله‌ی گناه و دوزخ
خورشید
همچون دشنامی برمی‌آید

و روز
شرمساری جبران‌ناپذیری‌ست.



آه
پیش از آنکه در اشک غرقه شوم
چیزی بگوی



درخت،
جهلِ معصیت‌بارِ نیاکان است
و نسیم
وسوسه‌یی‌ست نابکار.
مهتاب پاییزی
کفری‌ست که جهان را می‌آلاید.



چیزی بگوی
پیش از آنکه در اشک غرقه شوم
چیزی بگوی



هر دریچه‌ی نغز
بر چشم‌اندازِ عقوبتی می‌گشاید.
عشق
رطوبتِ چندش‌انگیزِ پلشتی‌ست
و آسمان
سرپناهی
تا به خاک بنشینی و
بر سرنوشتِ خویش
گریه ساز کنی.



آه
پیش از آن که در اشک غرقه شوم چیزی بگوی،
هر چه باشد



چشمه‌ها
از تابوت می‌جوشند
و سوگوارانِ ژولیده آبروی جهان‌اند.
عصمت به آینه مفروش
که فاجران نیازمندتران‌اند.



خامُش منشین
خدا را
پیش از آن که در اشک غرقه شوم
از عشق
چیزی بگوی!

“Do you think I am an automaton? — a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong! — I have as much soul as you — and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you. I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh: it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God's feet, equal — as we are!”
― Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre
