Poor Soul

You have played I think; and broken the toys you were fondest of; Because it's been so good...for so long Poor soul so sunk in sin I fear and hope, I burn and freeze like ice I desire to perish yet I ask health I love another and thus I hate myself I feed me in sorrow and laugh in all my pain thus displeaseth me both death and life and every wicked fancies I chanced to see No peace, comfort, I could find and crazily and wearily I came back. It seemed to melt away
