O flower-heart you have my soul betrayed To beauty with your almond eyes of love. O young and god-desirous dark-skinned maid Who travels through my life a pleasure-trove
Of laughter that wakes the sunrise of the morn, Whose tears once spilled in rivers down your cheeks When parting left you desolate, forlorn. O child of timelessness who ever seeks
The light it once had held that now seems lost In the turbulence of youth, the drama's flow, Around you the unnatural and forced Far from the golden path on which you go.
But I have seen behind the human veil The Truth of you and know it cannot fail.
