In the Dead of Night

a token of my love i commit to you as the rainbow bends upon the dew the flowers blow ever so calmly in the breeze as the waterfall overflows into the lake my love for you i will never fake i can not comprehend all the love you have bestowed upon me it is more innumerable than the water in the sea it is folly said the wise old man it is folly he left off speaking in his lonely state he never knew someone as beautiful as you all his life he was plagued by cruel but i have a lovely bird that does fly with my heart so young and full of life in due time she will heal me from the strife i struggle to rise in the morning just to see your face upon my frail knees i shake my heavy weighed leggs when i see you my lonliness is dead heaven above and hell beneath you stole my heart like a thief a thief in the night that took no pity like a spoiler that spoiled a mighty city why hath you broken my strength when i was as strong as ten galloping steeds you came along and wounded me a deep scare upon my heart and my soul was afflicted you bored me through with your sword you do to me as you will your hate pierced me as sharp steel you return to me with a dress of white you lie silently in the dead of night
