MAKING IT HOME

Saima Harmaja(1913-1937)

Sensitive it is to tread
from pain's cave to light.
Whoosh of wings
will now stay behind me in the house?

Faces I gazed
of angels from close.
Can only see
them one swallowed by shadows alone?

Only in dark
do those go with radiant wings?
With a veil on my eyes
from the forest of agony I slope.

Kotiinpääsy, from the collection Hunnutettu(1936), page 46.
