My Bonny Sweetheart




Those eyes,
The countenance...
Which appear in front
At my every turn,
Stopping my breath.
I know not how to say
That a stranger has made me feel this way.
I search...
For you, my bonny sweetheart.

Nay, you know not
My angst.
My yearning for you...
Is something I cannot describe.
You come in my dreams,
In my sleep.
Your essence teases me deep.
I reach...
For you, my bonny sweetheart.

I wait for the day to dawn,
Whence I shall come
In your path, in your pledges
And into your arms.
Oh! Your care nonpareil...
Your love; my refuge that is never frail...
My impatient desire waits
For you, my bonny sweetheart.

I will come...
Silently.
I will invade your dreams, your thoughts.
My passion overwhelming my senses,
Losing myself in you,
I will reign.
My quest shan't go in vain.
For one day,
I will become yours...
Oh, my bonny sweetheart!

Tara said...

Just the innocence of it makes it so endearing. Very good job there...and I love the ending too.

"I will become yours" and not "You shall be mine"
What you call selfless love perhaps...

Sweet. :)

Valentine's day greetings monsieur, although I guess it's a little late now. :)
