O Mellifluous Voice


O mellifluous voice

Thoughts as mist eddying around my being

Diaphanous musings do I feel

Full.

Vituperative!

But a prescient warning!

An aberration of myself,

And you, O voice,

Nestled down inside my breast

Tucked away,

Warm and content

My heart knows no greater pleasure

Than to be one with you,

O Angel,

O Voice,

O Peace be mine

Heard in a reiterative beat.

I am one with you

My prescience 

Of your irascible presence.

In Time I Sing

 In time I sing a song with spirit

For a longing so near it

That the pleasures they possess

In here increase in flesh

Love to bring my days with ease

All ways to please

By your charms

Unless you save me in your arms.


But my heart is worn

By your woeful scorn

I shall perish at thy breast

For I can no longer 

Feel comfort in my rest.

A Parting Sigh

 When I am free

Where'er I do fly

I am beneath so far,

Mine soul does cry.


All is lost

Joy ephemeral

O gone is my bliss

With sorrow I do kiss

Your timorous being.


Disgorge my overflowing heart

As such can I never salvage

My efflorescent mind.


But then my blissful soul you prove

Pleasures and pain you move.


O pity me

If by constant tenderness

Ah! Cruel evening breeze

Which made me freeze!


Sorrow is my friend

Sleeping there at my end

Never wanting for a parting sigh

I fall and softly die.

Not all my Torments

 Not all my torments

Will your pity move
All my cares
Does your cold heart remove.

A subtle torment-
You do me wrong
A torture O so long!
In sorrow I sing this song-

Your heart does mine great scorn
For pleasures you greatly remove
A final sigh does not improve
A weary soul-
Is worn.

A final call to life
Within my hour of strife
A tolling bell-
A resounding knell-
For I will fall until I die.
And you may be the why-
And when-
I don't return again.

Not all my torments
Will your pity move
All my cares
Does your cold heart remove.
