La Belle Dame Sans Merci
The orchids,the vase,the notes,the piano
always draw me near to you,like the soft,
summer,silent clouds embracing my sorrow
floating high like flames;flying free like
songs,sonnets against the painted pot(palace)
of blames,faiths
The leaves grey,golden,silvern,sweet solemn
of autumnal,nuptial delights,decadence
falling on the fleeting fleet of whispering
shades;shawls full of prayers,presents,poems
symbolizing our birth,death,destiny;dreams,
desire,agony,ailments dusk to dawn,dawn to
fall;the music of life with the darkness of
death endear my life to your pride,faith
concealing the tears of happiness beneath
your eyes,veil;setting the sun of sadness to
my shame,the name-unremembered,untame,forlorn
forsaken,forgotten into the farflung forests
of fate;la belle dame sans merci I think of
you in love,in hate
