The Chronicles of Simon the Lover
Chapter Five: Chronicle #1
Muriel
You are the sweetest fragrance
Of the fairest May flower
My heart is stricken
In every moment
Of your absence
Your beauty draws my soul
In the night watches
As the moon’s gravity
Upon the ocean tide
If I believed but for a moment
That there was not a place
For our love
I would beg not to love you
Will my confession
Find a kind answer?
Will you forgive my secrets?
Will your sacrifice
Be my love’s salvation?
Does your heart hear
My whispered prayer?
Oh Muriel
Suffer love’s fool to speak!
