Our life you made it a landslide has buried it
dawn of a city a beautiful morning in May
on which the earth has closed its fist again
dawn in me seventeen years ever brighter
and death enters me as if into a millOur life you said so happy to live
and to give life to what we loved
but death broke the balance of time
Death who comes death who goes death lived
Death visible eats and drinks at my costDeath visible Nusch invisible and harder
than hunger and thirst to my exhausted body
mask of snow on the earth and under the earth
fountain of tears in the night blind man’s mask
my past dissolves I give way to silence
—Paul Éluard (1895-1952), from Le Temps déborde (Time Overflows), 1947. Written after the sudden death on November 28, 1946 of Nusch, his wife.
