I must quell the tears of useless passion
as no other moon has yet shown for me.
All done is to make a heart again hasten
and never again be wild or feel free.

Is moments of the lonely night that make
the tears do fall to the pillows below.
True love causes within this heart to ache
for that which away seems to never show.

Let not me again do become one more
that have felt piled and pummeled in your heart.
Just let me simply love and so adore
your love’s joy freely given from the start.

My passion flows from ever endless well
as my dreams of you within me do find.
I rise up to the tolling of the bell
with yearning desire true in restless mind.

And should I never again find this love
I'll forever feel the joy of content.
For on the whitest wings of soaring dove
the greatest gift given me has been sent.

The smiles of my memories....
