We were separated;
Miles apart a gap created,
I saw you;
Under the sky so blue,
But our eyes did not meet;
All emotions I could deplete,
To describe the angst and sorrow;
No words would I borrow,
My faltering breath;
Teetering on the throes of death,
Dare I fleet across?
This great expanse pebbles toss,
I aim to proceed;
To my want I take heed,
To hold her near;
Whisper in her ear,
Sweet merry nothings;
Of all the things,
I would love unto her;
The velvet of her lips like cashmere fur,
Her embrace like flowers petals;
Upon my face; and no jeweled metals,
Could deem her worth;
This love of angel's mirth...
