The market day is over and work is all done
and those who came to call me have all gone
back in vain but with anger, and people blame
me and call me reckless, and they are right!
The reason for my delay is my waiting to give myself
into his hands for love, and they come with their laws
and codes to bind me, and I am guilty but I evade
for I am waiting to give myself into his hands for love!
Adopted from Tagore’s Gitanjali, poem 17
