“The fountain of my heart dried up within me,-- With nought that loved me, and with nought to love, I stood upon the desert earth alone. And in that deep and utter agony, Though then, then even most unfit to die I fell upon my knees and prayed for death.” HeartEarthDiesMy HeartDesertKneesAgonyFountainDesolation Author:Charles Robert Maturin

“The song I came to sing remains unsung to this day. I have spent my days in stringing and in unstringing my instrument. The time has not come true, the words have not been rightly set; only there is the agony of wishing in my heart…..

But the lamp has not been lit and I cannot ask him into my house; I live in the hope of meeting with him; but this meeting is not yet.” HeartFacesSongAsksHouseWishVoiceHeardMy HeartInstrumentsRemainsMeetingsGentleThis DayAgonyLitLampsFootsteps Author:Rabindranath Tagore
