Melpomene's Melody

Can thou's heart not see The tragedy Can thou's ears not hear Melpomene's melody This is not to end in despairing my lovesome But to be a lovers tale Never to be told by tragedian Forsaken by thy lover lovelorn I shall be Can thou not see it is your heart that sings her melody Do not fear uncertainty For it is your rib that has created me An I who is here to shelter thee I shall never banish thy to the cold For it is your heart that warms me Do no forsake me I have done thou no misdeed For banished to purgatory I shall be Can thou truly not see This is our tale to be told through out the centuries Two lovers destine to be I beg of thee Do not let us fall victim to Melpomene's melody For our love undone would be her victory
