Oh love why art thou in hiding?
For thy heart searched and longed,
and yet thy fruits yielded nothing,
but love's own actions wronged.

I searched for thee in unforgiving sea,
submitting thy heart, I threw it away,
and yet the waves yielded nothing to me;
(but the warming kiss of a loveless day.)

I searched the day and nightly sky,
looking for the brightest star;
yet love was neither far or nigh,
for such a love shown all too far.

Walking amidst autumn's veil,
I searched her colors and her eyes,
but thy search ended to no prevail,
for love must pride herself in disguise.

Mountains and streams I did explore,
and explore I did for nothing found,
but a loveless heart with none to adore,
trampled upon thy hallowed ground.

Night again I searched on whim,
hoping love would meet me there,
yet come it not, night ceased to dim,
and morn' found itself in thy tear.

Proudless and loveless I did depart,
in search for love in so wrong-a-place;
for such a search, wronged thy heart-
I should have searched thy loving face!
