Ode to my Sweet
You, my sweet, brighten up the day,
When with another you shine, bringing light to those who taste you
But when alone you’re sickening, dangerous,
I wish to see you always, but if I do then I may die
My body it will fall, weighed down by your heavenly embrace.
It’s a shame, I, the one who loves you so, cannot touch you, cannot embrace you
The world rips us apart, wanting you for themselves
Unrelenting in your siren song
Even Zeus, the almighty, cannot resist your temptation
You, unrelenting but so lovely.
Unwilling to leave but unable to stay. Why must we live as estranged lovers?
Never able to touch but always in reach
To leave you would mean certain death but to stay would mean the same.
I’m stuck my angel, my love, my sweet
Oh how I adore you.
