I Swear Unto You
I swear my love to thee by the fires of ambitionThat burn so bright in the human race
and I swear by you, with your permission,
for I hold the thought of you in the utmost place.
And by the beauty of your eyes, which doth me enthrall,
engulfing me, always holding ever tight
I swear to you, by that which couldn't be forestalled,
the intense love that makes me think of you all these nights
not only those, but by the mortal dream
which even when I'm without you, lets me with you go
but even through these it seems
I can't truly express how I love thee so.
