What poetry I see in thine eyes,
When they glisten with emotion.
What of it when we say our
good-byes?
Without warning or provocation;
Your tears will fill my dreams.
What present harm have I done
For shame to well up inside of
me;
Or has joy brought about that
sea?
Come now, let us have none;
Dry your eyes and see me to home.
You crucify me with your stares;
Is the time together not well
spent,
Or is that look one of care?
'Tis a fine line betwixt love and
hate,
One that is old and ancient.
I trust your visage is one of
passion;
So off I go, and you to bed;
Dream sweet dreams of my
affections,
Awake with a thought of me in
your head,
And smile tomorrow, a thousand
smiles instead.
