Seas of Time and Fate

Ife my love I dream that time Should haunt or hesitate to be A whisper exquisite till it requites With love every rose upon the sea Then memories wake each crimson blossom Sometimes aspiring till when free If my love on seas of time We sail beyond the very brine Of all that fate hath made to be Then time on seas of fate should find Tis true the moment questions less When chained to words of renaissance And beauty gives what is best Redolent then when laid to rest In chains and coffins so serene That love is thralled in me When fate has thralled the shadow pale On seas of all I dream avails A nosforatu dark in solemn sleep Where sorrow withers and the eve Of twilight comes indeed to all Whom in the gloom of night Find love as tragic as is life Love as tragic as is life, to have Should silhouette in the least All the dreams that we see Ife my love I dream that time Twas but a tomb of grey regret Then every shadow that I find Should find that all I have is left Within the tomb of grey regret Within the tomb where we once met And there in darkness deep as true Find my soul still loving you Sometimes my love a fate forlorn Bereft of every gothic light Should find for me and all the more The anguish that the torment might In ashen hearts and roses dust And sunrises dawning till they rust But ife I suffer in unbelief No tragic waste or travesty Should make belief then more to me For love believes that time might sail On seas as vast as soul may go And sailing till assailed no more On Seas of time and fate thus so Every emotion I’ve spent on thee Becomes as real as my belief That time can languish in the gloom Of every ghost of love untombed Till fading in the raven ruin Twilight comes to light the night And find that even in the gothic grey Of love and dimmest candlelight There burns no heart upon the sea The sea of all my true belief Ife my love I dream that time Should thus like fate unthralled confide When all the torment of a life A gothic as a phantoms tear Could fall in love and still belief While seas of fate do thrive indeed When all the torment of a life And every sorrow that is ripe Awakes within the grave of love And finds within the tomb of soul Every rose upon the sea The sea of time and fate in me
