In Each Other's Arms
Grant me the sweet pleasure of your scent
mixed betwixt mine fingers and mine locks.
Embrace me, beloved, for our dear company was meant,
and 'tis not destiny's purpose to us coldly mock.
Come hither sweetest love. Lay by my side.
Let me sing unto you the praises of your kiss.
Shall we renounce the sun, moon, and their base time
to live together in this eternal bliss?
Love, all love, is frail yet strong.
Love causes joy and causes harm.
Love is so short and yet so long.
But let us live the love found in each other's arms.
