Did spring arrive early?

Did spring arrive early?

The sand gathered

Rain attempted paths

Would desert gain terrain?

 

Puddles formed slow

The roads were heavy

Why did my Heart feel light?

 

The flowers bloomed

My Heart sang larky

Did spring arrive early?

Don’t cry for me for heavens will now smile

Don’t cry for me for heavens will now smile

When you loved me then I became all Love

So I may feel fires in your bosom

I was your moon and your sorrow-filled dove

I was your flower never to blossom

 

When your heart ached I became all heartache

So I may be one with all of your pangs

And none of this could ever make me quake

Not even the thoughts of death’s sharpened fangs

 

Divided by such a thin paper wall

Between the nothingness and everything

Absorbing Love lessens shock of the fall

My Love, my light, my prince, nay say my King

 

As I wither into eternal sigh

My arms heavy cloaked in loss of morrow

Your Love lends me bliss and hopes oh so high!

Of more time, just time that I could borrow

 

Time still marble would not lend me a while

And as I croak, throat parched by your absence

“Don’t cry for me for heavens will now smile”

Again I choke on your renewed fragrance
