What shall I offer thee? The roses of a garden in bloom, To give thee my love, I shall sing sweet tunes, A lovers lullaby, To our loves melody, To answer thy hearts faint cry, For the sun shines brightly upon your hair, Mine eyes are captured by your lenghthy stare, The trees, They shadow thy face, Thy heart is humbled by your grace, What shall I offer thee my love? A token, of words passionately spoken, Thy bittersweet tears in a bottle, To give thee my love, I offer no more, no less, A love truest of trues, One of deepest joy that knows no sorrow, I offer thee this journey, this romantic quest, For thy soul speaks softly, Without a shout, but a whisper Thy heart feels thy soul around thee, As the warmth of the sun upon thy skin, Thy heart is in thy hands, For thee alone, no mortal does not understand, Thy earthly kingdoms will fall all around thee, For thy kingdom is only your love, Never shall it be over-thrown, Nor cast into the deep seas, For thy love, thy words has captured me, Thy heart has wings of butterflies, It dreams, dreams where angels sleep, Where fairies trod to love for keep, For thee my love, Thy heart shall I keep, Whatever thou love bestows, Thy love shall overcome, For thy heart weeps till morning, Morning to night, Thou is lost in dreams, Dreaming dreams of loves' flight, What shall I give thee my love? Thy heart, thy soul, thy flesh, Thy dreams, thy life, thy death, Even thy last breath? Whatever is ask of thee, I would endure ten thousand pains, Travel near or far, Follow any star, To give thee thy love, "Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove. O,no! it is an ever-fixed mark....William Shakespeare |

it seems in present tense yet has that really neat nostalgia to it. k0ol. The only difference between the creative and the conformists is that the creative will not be conquered and the conformists already are. |
