Until the day when we become
Two hearts no more, my dearest Love
I linger in thy promising kiss
And dream of our sweet pure unity
Mine eyes mark thy entrancing footsteps—
Towards mine embrace
As you step towards mine arms,
I’m deeply drawn into thy intoxicating gaze
Forever, thy beauty shall abide
In my mind, thoughts of us shall hide—
In the deep crevices that the deepest Love creates—
In memories and smiles
I wish not for the wealth of men
Nor do I covet any earthly thing
I only strive for the Love of thee—
You who hold my heart in sweet captivity
Though this earth shall fade
Through this ever-shortening life
And even beyond death’s grasp,
And carried through Heaven’s gates
Shall my Love for thee last
For ‘tis impossible for a Soul to separate
Till then, with thy absence
I shall remain content
For I’m really not alone
Mine time, it is not spent—
In solitude
