A lover's Poem.
I love thee,
Say ye with pride.
To thy lover's face,
You speak.

Words disappear,
into shadow and dust.

For thine love,
This fool shalst heave
His-self from the highest peak
smile unto thee,
I shall.
For I shall look into thine eyes
And laugh a hearty laugh.

For all else falls into shadow and dust.

For them that shall conspire
Till the earth's end,
To keep two apart,
To dictate unto thee the conflagrations of thy love,
Whisper, conspire to thy heart's desire,
Keep lovers apart,
Play thy part.
Thou shalst not bear the fruit of thy effort,
Thrust thy lies unto us,
keep us apart, thou cannot.

Thou art but shadow and dust.


Thrust thy knives into mine back,
Heave your spew and offel unto me,
sit down, I shall not.
For mine love for thy soul consumeth me
Above all else.
Thrust this feeble world aside,
For it is all shadow and dust.

In the mouth of bitter madness,
You thrust mine heart,
Such sorrow, bringest thy love,
All so much for thy love,
Mine love.
For my mind bears the portrait,
That is to be our love.

Let all else crumble to shadow and dust.

Naysayers, heed my anger.
Thou shalst conspire all to thy desire,
Fall to thee, I shall not,
bend to thy wind, i cannot,
break to thy will, i will not.

For thou art naught but shadow and dust.

And I shall spit in thy direction, nay sayers,
for In the cosmos that is our love,
thou art but shadow and dust

Starcrossed lovers?
raise mine fist into thy sky,
o lord,
scream loud,
Bring mine love to me!
Tears and blood of ache,
falleth to thy ground.
disappear into thy ground, lord.

for all else in mine life hath crumbled unto
shadow and dust.

Come Armageddon, lord!
Lay waste to this foolish world,
Heave thy stones unto me,
For I shalst triumph.
I shall love thee, my one love.
E'en when mine body crumbles by bitter wrath:

Unto shadow and dust.
