Laments of Love

Listen to poem:
Lamenting love rest upon my humble heart, May thy candle burn quickly before thy night… Loves lament lies lingering from far apart, For the slings and arrows deploy and depart, Solitary stars sacrificed amidst dying light… Lamenting love rest upon my humble heart, A broken hearts graveyard a calamitous compart, Release my soul this warmless winters white… Loves lament lies lingering from far apart, Your love has harpooned a distrustful dart, Like a raging rioting roar with a bitter bite… Lamenting love rest upon my humble heart, Lost in love, arrested & abandoned by black art, Your voiceless words are daggers that ignite… Loves lament lies lingering from far apart, For you, my love has become an infamous impart, Where tedious tears testify tenderly in twilight… Lamenting love rest upon my humble heart, Loves lament lies lingering from far apart.
