In darkest eve, I so forthright believe
placed upon my sleeve, my heart must bleed.
Though I wish for penance, how softly
breathes this plague, of sweet resonance.
Sword! You cannot wound me.
Gun! Your death will not woo me.
In sickness and in health,
how sweetly, you try to outdo me.
But grief, it is the treacherous poison
of which we must all beware.
It seeps into body; drains the soul,
and as we weep, it sets the snare.
In loss we may swim, forever in plight
as drown we do, in chill and bite.
For in darkest eve, I so forthright believe
placed upon a platter, my heart I feed.
