Watch

Can the moon watch the sky without reply
nor can I watch the days go by
that thee, thy love does not know mine,
nor watch the governing of the bide.

As only fools watch life go by
can I watch not, my heart to cry
to have you near ~ nor watch while my
thoughts fly, impromptu from my bind.

Not seeing you ~ no true remind,
but only echo's gasping fondly for apply.
Not love for you, but only whispers of confine
that shade and shallow ~ troubling, unkind.

How can I watch at all as thine
were not of self ~ so to, not I'm.
