The Phantom Bride
These sifting sands pay little heed,
And midnight robs tranquility,
And in my mind is sown a seed
As to its plausibility.
You've gone my love, they laid you down
In nuptial gown of finest silk,
Near to the place where you did drown
By people of your family's ilk.
And yet I saw you walk tonight
More than a phantom of my mind,
In hand you held the poesy tight,
Your bridal veil flowed out behind.
You seemed to float as creatures do
That I have seen in realm of dreams,
But your sweet face was tinged with blue
And air was rent with tear torn screams.
That smile that tore my living heart
Played gently on your pallid lip
You waved as if you must depart
Like moon that into day doth slip.
I've seen you there a thousand times,
Now will is weak, and reason slips
And as the midnight hour now chimes
Once more I'll kiss those pallid lips.
And midnight robs tranquility,
And in my mind is sown a seed
As to its plausibility.
You've gone my love, they laid you down
In nuptial gown of finest silk,
Near to the place where you did drown
By people of your family's ilk.
And yet I saw you walk tonight
More than a phantom of my mind,
In hand you held the poesy tight,
Your bridal veil flowed out behind.
You seemed to float as creatures do
That I have seen in realm of dreams,
But your sweet face was tinged with blue
And air was rent with tear torn screams.
That smile that tore my living heart
Played gently on your pallid lip
You waved as if you must depart
Like moon that into day doth slip.
I've seen you there a thousand times,
Now will is weak, and reason slips
And as the midnight hour now chimes
Once more I'll kiss those pallid lips.
