“It´s possible I am pushing through solid rock

in flintlike layers, as the ore lies, alone;

I am such a long way in I see no way through,

and no space; everything is close to my face,

and everything close to my face is stone.

I don´t have much knowledge yet in grief

so this massive darkness makes me small.

You be the master: make yourself fierce, break in;

then your great transforming will happen to me,

and my great grief cry will happen to you”
(Rainer Maria Rilke)
