Forlorn, with only her tremulous sigh
A beloved child-woman, pleasant but lost,
When shadows end love’s moment to decry
Resplendence of evenings… oh fate all crossed:
Her once lucent essence undone this time
When emptiness grasps for vaporlike air
Through midnight’s taste, each bitterness a grime
As pour of frothy tears spill everywhere...
And marrow, veins, claim anguish deep inside
Neglecting an ebullient spirit, bold
That she in this lackluster room would hide
Without moon with blur of secrets untold.
Yet he, through mystical spell guards her ways
To calm a heart as rune of light obeys.
