WHAT MUST I DO TO AWAKEN THY HEART?
What must I do to awaken thy heart?
Shall I on that eternal journey fly
To prove my passion through romanciful art
And unveil thy love as a somber cry?
So then thy charms I would no longer know
As I would confide in infinite sleep...
And then thy coldness could no longer show
As my earnest love, to myself, I keep.
Either way, it's the losing grip I hold-
But to forget...is a far, distant dream;
For such memories so painful and bold
Can only strengthen my resolve it seems.
If just for now, I ask that I might see...
Thy passion and love thou hast kept from me!
