Maidens Afar


Ceaseless lines of maidens enthralled by me Their love draped as a heavy wool blanket Suffocating, choking, can’t stand to be Beneath the wool, leading to my casket. Stretched over and over, gasping for breath Pulling at limbs in every direction Gasping for a way out, other than death Blanket full of unwanted affection But the choking disappears at your sight Let maiden’s fall and we live together With strength to breathe when were reunited For your love will keep light as a feather Be with me and let our love now begin So long as it stays alive within
