Deaths Gift of Love
Poetry
A thousand deaths I’ve died for thee
Alone in all loves mystery
Fear my capture preventing speak
You steal my strength bring forth the meek
In dream and life and beat of heart
In dark of night and sunlit day start
Always your beauty forefront to me
The hunger grows to know your company
Food nor drink appease this pain
Night and Day one in the same
A thousand deaths a thousand more
I can not bear the thoughts in store
So to the blade I turn in heal
My pain my life the cut does steal
Your eyes I see in final rest
My love I send in deaths quest
