Analysis of Dream Is Finer– When Shall Be Expected



Dream is Finer– When shall be expected
Thought; In state of his lonesome,
Young and drunk till Eon is up;
Before we say adeiu, Hear ye dolour.

Word after word, Glaive through my heart
Sceptic Thomas– we perchance;
But in heart, devoting love
In minds eye, I found what it likes
Stilly without, Behold the beauty in dark.

In first light, I go without
Thou such a beautiful dove;
The two alone, Found abode
And in two– I's only who love,
Together they live– their heaven's build.
