Sleep free my lady
Let thy troubled brow
Sooth in safe dream
Let the prancing cloud hoofs
Of childish toys
Bring smile
And joy
And bend your lips
In too unfamiliar ways
Let not mendacious lovers
Assault thee
Nor
The loveless toil
Of fruitless searching
Scar your beauty
I know your heart
I shall never allow you to shed false tear
No water shall
Ever stain your visage
Again
My lady I love thee from afar
Can there be truer love?
More Forthright?
Without need for self perceived advantage
Like an onion seller in the market
Laying digit on scale
To improve the weight of purse?
I seek no recompense
Just
Tonight
You sleep free
Tonight
I will guard your dreams.
