Summer Love

Are we to be forlorn because we are the same
Are we to hide from ourselves and everyone else 
Many of us are afraid, we’re only to blame 
For my love, you shall not be forgotten
In rue of light of all Summer nights and days 
Perhaps one day hence, our love not forbidden 
And we’ll dance in a meadow of daisies 
Like those like us except for this one way 
Come Monsoon, their love, certainly, will fade away 
But ours, my dear, set in a Summer Stone 
Will hold through rain and drought, and constant pain 
Whence Summer elapses, promise to forget
For in the next life, we shall try again 
Might we succeed, bask in the glory and reign
