(poem by R. M. Rilke)

Extinguish my eyes, I'll go on seeing you
Seal my ears, I'll go on hearing you
And without feet I can make my way to you
Without a mouth I can swear your name

Break off my arms, I'll take hold of you
With my heart as with a hand
Stop my heart, and my brain will start to beat
And if you consume my brain with fire
I'll feel you burn in every drop of my blood
