Hardships and sorrow seep through my veins. | |
At night, the dream returns, gently easing the pain. | |
But this placebo cannot fulfill | |
My soul, desperate to escape everlasting winter's chill. | |
| |
Those who true love has held, it will go on holding... | |
| |
Don Quixote restored honor in an age | |
When chivalry, shimmering in silver, had been lost as a sage. | |
As a follower of this sacred code | |
I write with the help of the stars, love's true abode. | |
| |
Marius was led by love's leash to heal his invisible tear | |
Only to find sweet Cosette, stop, and then stare; | |
The power of a glance was all Hugo needed to create | |
"The conjunction of two stars," the answer to all that is there. | |
| |
I starve when you are gone | |
Food cannot make me strong | |
What more in the world could go wrong | |
Than for true love to be lost, because we acted like Rhett and Scarlett | |
Stubborn and late, ignoring our fate. | |
| |
When you are near me, my strength returns | |
Yet my feelings stay sealed inside as my weary soul yearns. | |
Let me just see you, see you breath, see you smile, Hear your voice, an endearing music box | |
If only but for a while. | |
| |
Patience, the steady pilot, guided me | |
Across every lonely year | |
And brought me to your majesty. | |
Now, the fool is useless here | |
His qualities are a travesty. | |
| |
All of us were born unwhole | |
Missing a companion to unite with our soul. | |
Under the magical dominion of nature | |
Love exists as part of life's quest | |
To provide meaning and put our heart's at rest. | |
| |
My love is my gift to you that will always remain | |
Young and pure, even as I endure a relapse of pain. | |
Together let us embrace the love to which we are bound. | |
Save me at last! I promise paradise will be found. |
