Song of Songs 2:4 (NIV)

Let him lead me to the banquet hall,

and let his banner over me be love.

I welcome the stranger who is myself.

Derek Walcott, from Love After Love

"The time will come

when, with elation,

you will greet yourself arriving

at your own door, in your own mirror,

and each will smile at the other's welcome,

and say, sit here. Eat.

You will love again the stranger who was your self.

Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart

to itself, to the stranger who has loved you

all your life, whom you ignored

for another, who knows you by heart.

Sit. Feast on your life."
