THROUGH MY EYES:         BRAHMS’ S UNTITLED POEM  (1857) *          Women I love with my heart and soul But I am not made for matrimony A domestic life  and its trappings Would destroy my creativity.     Clara I would protect and worship With my life—she is perfection- Love I would blemish and defile If I were to mention—‘Give me your affection’. Ah, my beloved Robert is gone In his tomb my heart is interned My mentor, my friend, my inspiration   Alas, how little I gave my master in return. My music is Robert and Clara Our souls are by destiny wrought History shall remember But would understand us not.          * Robert Schumann (1810—1856)         * Johannes Brahms (1833-1897)         * Clara Schumann    (1819—1896)
