Love's Intended

On dreary days, I seldom wake
for deepest dreams arise opaque 
and multitudes of fiends ascend 
dispatching poems, I've just penned.
In vain I hide inside my end 
upon a prayer, I make amends, 
for all pretensions once defended
are quiet now, I'm Love's intended.
The dream has turned and I'm awake
and shaking knees no longer quake.
