Alone

When the last of daylight fades,
and thoughts of you do muster, jade
so endless, like a fool's parade
is gratified with its tirade!

Some voiceless hurt sleeps for its aid,
for sooner than the eyes do close
and longer than a statues pose
thy absence nettles its enclose.

That senseless boundary expose
its vile urging, ever stows
as if a curse without thee knows
that pain, and sentences its dross.

This loveless world, of self consoles,
while thee and I, forgotten prose
lie in some verse in heaven's throne -
The soul, the soul... finds Hell, alone!
