    To my beloved Carito,

    A farewell by Coventry Patmore

    With all my will, but much against my heart,

    We two now part.

    My Very Dear,

    Our solace is, the sad road lies so clear.

    It needs no art,            

     

    With faint, averted feet

    And many a tear,

    In our opposed paths to persevere.

    Go thou to east, I west.

    We will not say

    There’s any hope, it’s so far away.

    But, O, my best,

    When the one darling of our widowhead,

    The nursling Grief,

    Is dead,

    And no dews blur our eyes

    To see the peach-bloom come in evening skies,

    Perchance we may,

    Where now this night is day,

    And even though faith of still averted feet,

    Making full circle of our banishment,

    Amazed feet;

    The bitter journey to the bourne so sweet

     Seasoning the termless feast of our content

    With tears of recognition never dry.

     

     

     The Taxi By Amy Lowell

     

    When I go away from you

    The world beats dead

    Like a slackened drum.

    I call out for you against the jutted stars

    And shout into the ridges of the wind

    Streets coming fast,

    One after the other,

    Wedge you away from me

    And the lamps of the city prick my eyes

    So that I can no longer see your face.

    Why should I leave you,

    To wound myself upon the sharp edges of the night?

     

     

     Destiny By Dark Night  Rider

     

    Oh ostentatious tragedy of mine

    Has carried your will on my destiny.

    In a cold winter night she was brought to me

    But a colder winter night she is taken away.

     

    Sinister path we both go

    I follower her, she ran away

    Who I can blame?

     Who can this explain?

     

    When from her away I am

    The night with its frozen arms embrace me so hard.

    The day scorches my skin with its wimp of heat.

    So much enjoyment my pain brings to them.

     

    Oh vindictive destiny of mine.

    A year away from me you took her away.

    365 days turned in 365 years.                                                                                

    Waiting the only choice was given to me.

     

    Oh villainous destiny of mime,

    A unbelievable rumor of her returning reached me.

    She came back in a hot day

    Now in a hotter day gone she is.

     

    Once I hopefully my seeds on her heart I want.

    But weed killed them, in desperation I found myself.

    No road to go, no word to say; just resentment toward my love one.

    Cowardice was my name.  Odium was my given name.

     

    Oh tragic destiny of mine has put me in such pain

    Now, a departure is the next thing to do.

    An eternal farewell so no more pain to her shall be given.

    But I will take all on me.

     

    Oh Carito, deity of my sky sorry for me shall no feel

    As a casted Demon, your eyes shall see me.

    Once suffering soul was I that your smile cured.

    I wanted more, another smile, a hug, a touch, a kiss.


    In my crime, the atonement was given

    Well deserved well given no word against it

    I take it because I deserved

    I take it because is just

     

    Now, I need your smile so I can smile, too.

    I yearn for holding you between my aching arms.

    I long for my fingers to caress her face

    Like the thirsty man in from of the tender river.

     

     Oh Celestial parent, that un-given kiss

    Is haunting me day and night. Cursing me

    It wants to be given to those rose-pale lips of hers.

    I want to deliver. She doesn’t want it.

     

    Oh cruel destiny of mine. No passion could I give

    A friend cannot I be. It’s disgraceful.

    Cannot I tolerate her seeing her in other arms

    Cannot I see her leaving after other.

     

    I need to leave. I need to run away

    So Death in my rescue can come

    Five year just her memory fed me.

    But more I want.

     

    Oh lord, please give strength to stay away

    I cannot take this anymore. No, without her

    Give direction to follow, but if I can go

    Bestow on me the gift of the eternal sleep.

     

    Since I can be around her, let be the wind

    So I can touch her face when she is not looking

    Or let me be the rain so I can surprise from behind

    Or better her shadow so I can be with her always

     

    Since no more around will be, Carito, allow me

    For the last time to love you.

    Let me in your dreams to love you

    Like you love me in mine.

     

    Oh wondrous destiny of mine. Thanks

    For bringing her to me. Thank you for being

    I’m not sad because it’s over, but

    Happy because it happened to me.
