In order not to hear <br />The insistent complaint <br />Of the soul locked up <br />In that shell, <br />Give away your life <br />To the infinite centuries… <br />Do it, if you wish to live. <br />…But the crafty beauty <br />And the treacherous voice <br />Are needed just for <br />Testing your soul.<br /><br />Tsira Gogeshvili<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-mysterious-voice/
