My lady

I saw my lady weep,
Tears fall from her eyes.
In  deaths  final sleep,
I hear her tearful crys.

Cease now mylove,my sweeting
Be still and dry your eyes
Soon enough our meeting
Let joys replace your sighs

Soon beneath earths cover
Together we shall lie
Our arms around each other
Sweetheart,do not cry

( written in 20 secs and it shows)
ps -the opening line is of course taken from an old song(elizebethan?)

If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

Hauntingly sad...yet beautifully written Michael.
So good to read you here once more.
