Lay me down and swallow
Ashen lips, they're breathless,
Beg me stay, don't follow
Chilling shades of coldness.

Hold me close, as lovers,
Cleave to me and whisper
'I am yours, no other's',
Though my skin be blistered

Lachrymose your eyes be,
Lights in mine are fading,
Tears will fall upon me,
Love is suffocating.

None who pity see my
weeping lover hold this
Ruined flesh that is I,
Pressing a goodbye kiss.


When I see your face all the angels are shamed.

"Cleave to me and whisper
'I am yours, no other's',"

~ Ye deserveth nothing less than a lady's devout and complete loyalty, Sir Luke.  

A passionate pen such as that of thou, must  surely stir the heart of any maiden.
