for my val....


ETERNAL VAL

A moment in this equal excitement
Where time has stirred this mortal flame
As the moon blend, you were there
My hope, my love
My dear one Sharon

In modest grace we stood the hash wind of time
As I constantly gaze upon your distanced face
I partly loved and partly feared
That I might rather feel than gaze

My soul reaches you even when my feeling were conquered
That I dare not compare thee with another
And through the glorious depth of thisday
I will bathe in the wondrous words of your lips

You fashioned me with a leading love-throb in my heart
And in many ways I find you in my thoughts
I look upon the heavens that bends above us and say
If God has chosen that I should not love thee
Let it be after death.
