Thinking of You

My fair raven haired maiden, Parting from you causes me such longing. Many are the thoughts with which my mind is laden. Of us, hand in hand, in our place of belonging. Of us, eye to eye, our days prolonging. Our course through life, together we would chart, And while I'm with you or departing... I'm thinking of you with all of my heart. How I wish that the sun would never set, That our time with each other would never end. But time we cherish due to nights onset. Due to ends and beginnings can our love ascend, It begin again, only as time does descend. While I dread nights onset and our time apart, I need you to know, my fair godsend... I'm thinking of you with all of my heart. While we are without one another, This lonely time too, will come to a close. I look forward to our time together. To look into your eyes divine and repose In arms of mine, your hands and mine enclose Each other, wanting no other, dreading to depart. And while we wait, I hope your heart knows... I'm thinking of you with all of my heart. My fair maiden, while my heart forgoes, For now, your presence. I hope God will impart His blessing upon us. Till we meet, I expose... I'm thinking of you with all of my heart.

Hi Robert, thanks for your entry, a nice poem, would have placed higher, without the repeated words, I like the refrain, however in a rhyme contest you will always place higher without repeating words. Thanks again!
