Lovers' Cart

Behold today your name 
engraves my sky
Indeed my eyes your face 
alone espy
You own my mind no matter 
how I try
To stay alive to issues 
lurking by.

Alone my world was empty 
and a gloom
With you my life compares 
to August bloom
Alone I only craved a 
peaceful tomb
With you my fortunes wallow 
now in boom.

A vow I make to live within 
your heart
A sword or speech can 
never pull apart
My hand in yours together 
we depart
To paradise on lovely 
lovers' cart.
