Translucent Flame


Oh echo soft inside my soul
Takes precedent, its bell to toll
The giving into high accord
Its lasting gift might best afford

Perchance the dreams allowed to stay
Bestow another means to say
As if I may, or if I might
A giving wish in loves respite

Undo to dim, the flame courtiers
As bright the fire through the years
Beside you still in passions play
Into deep promise let to lay

And leave me then on silken grass
Allow this time apart to pass
Into your hands release my tears
When missing you each moment seers

The truth to burn eternally
Although perhaps you may not see
For you my love, surrendered here
A flame forever burns so clear
