When my words fall upon you like cold chains
imagination is the master, and I am its slave
If ever my mind repose upon anything with complete enjoyment –
upon no person but you -
I more believe you can have the least against me.

But in the moment of the suns recline
better shadows fill the empty space
Therein you travel the utter dark
till sigh relief when again my light you attract.
Have I nothing else to love in you but that?

"Have I nothing else to love in you but that?"

This almost has an Elizabeth Barrett Browning feel to it. Excellent poetry

Your poems on love are whisper-soft and expressed ever so eloquently.
