Do You Want Me

Do you want me to leave you without tears? Can I part, my beloved, without grief? But separation drives shaft deep that sears Thus my heart wounded dying most too brief. Remembrance steals its way in like a thief. Your sweet embrace is memory, yet there’s fears. Adieu forever line is my belief; Do you want me to leave you without tears? For she does play the harlot sweet one hears, And I do suffer having no relief, Though sneering rogues give me now mocking jeers Can I part, my beloved, without grief? Such maledictions’ a fast turning leaf, In life’s book warning me of sharpened spears That try to pierce this hooded cloak all lief But separation drives shaft deep that sears. Her indiscretions cry to my sad ears, A life of disharmonic notes motif. Salacious living style that nay endears; Thus my heart wounded dying most too brief. Can I but take a something stellar chief Her garter mayhaps mine to keep through years Much better yea than countess’ lace kerchief With wise wish my hurt brain now surely cheers Do you want me.
