Before I leave from this world A vision of you I yearn to see Intrepidly my heart leads on I possess the door but not the key A swan on this lake of love Loneliness, finally, has reared its head Cold is the lake I am drifting on I search the shallows for warmth instead No comfort to be found for my aching heart The shallows may be clear to see your way But I desire the depths to dive down in To turn this night into day

No fleeting romance will do, only one of great depth. Your thoughts are so poetically and romantically written, WW.
