I've look upon the shore Seen nothing but a bore I've pontificated the stars Only to retreat to rowdy bars Seen light in the darkest cave To only contemplate my nave
As I lay at last to rest This soul to shrink without a best I recall her face at last it shines Sweeter than the finest wines Fires my closing eyes to leave A life to not succumb to greave
And now after a thousand lines Written along an age of times With her love I can leave my soul An age of heaven with this fall Strike me lord I can depart Her beauty could make death an art
