Once a great love cut my life in two. <br />The first part goes on twisting <br />at some other place like a snake cut in two. <br /> <br />The passing years have calmed me <br />and brought healing to my heart and rest to my eyes. <br /> <br />And I'm like someone standing in the Judean desert, looking at a sign: <br />'Sea Level' <br />He cannot see the sea, but he knows. <br /> <br />Thus I remember your face everywhere <br />at your 'face Level.'<br /><br />Yehuda Amichai<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/once-a-great-love/
