parting

Parting is such sweet sorrow
For my love dies
Without you an unknown tomorrow
Since this is the last time
Love me more
Let me feel you breathe
For that is the breath of me

You take
Let your caress warm me
For that are the touches
They are never too much

Parting is such sweet sorrow
For you will forever
Be a part of me
Am thinking of you with every thought
Dream of you in all dreams
Whosoever would have me
Has an empty shell
For what he seeks
You always have
My love is craved in your being
For all immortality

When do we meet
For we have the treasures of a lifetime
We have all the glories of love
Parting is such sweet sorrow
