Der See

i recently read a poem that describes perfectly how i feel at the moment. It is from the Sulamith by Frothjof Schuon and it's called Der See. This is a German piece.

It talks about a person so true that is being compared to nature at its best. that anything and everything of him is mezmerizing, like his smile that makes you reach the other side of the mountains, because the mountains could never hinder it from you. can you imagine how vast a lake can be, though it may seem small compared to the ocean, it is flowing... and like love that may seem to ever end...

some lines: Thou, whom i love, art the wide lake, to those shore i descended early, when its waves swayed in the morning, and snow shone from the distant mountains. Thou art the lake, when the morning rains on white mountains, and the gentle way of the wind of thy surface touches, and wondrously moves silver circles in play;... thou art the lake and art wide, a blessed surface, so wide and deep like eternity.

whatever. this is how i reallyfeel at the moment. i am inlove and what does someone who is inlove be contemplating on but the sensitivities of anything that surrounds her, listening with the ear of her heart.
