Six Years

M' Sweetheart, after six long years of waiting I have realized you will not come back again. O, Heavens! Burn with sorrow and bright lightning For in your Auspices, the better Part of Me Doth Still Abide No pain, no sorrow, can keep you with me, Though I try, Longing after hopes That should not be Espoused Or else I'll drown In the Very Ocean of my Sweat And Tears I will Abide in Thee Until I come Until I come to find the other side Of Sorrow's Sea.

The subject so deeply sad and the writing beautifully conveys the pain and the resolve to hold on to what is magical about love and about life even in the suffering.
