Shadows I Cling

Newly built scenes Rise in my eye Erected lovers playhouse Mine spirit floated As day call came night Bodies work ne’er done The splendor of your dreadful hours Yet you sing your joy soft and right Ye have no more other desperate plight Putting up your flag and tower Now we two face solitude alone Every bit of your smile a sight On your loveliness I gloated Cheeks like a little mouse Breath from your mouth just sighs I stand so close to you, shadows I cling.
