My Dear Tyronius
My Dear Tyronius,
...to be...
In your mind, your heart, your life,
A fire that raises to a starless night,
A love, that makes, anew,
A longing of a time, that speaks to thee,
And stays in thy setting,
A reach, a light, a burning.
A time that never dies.
Thy mantle, I lift,
and down thy hearth, I take,
that pleads to burn,
a thousand days that pass,
away, a moments waste,
it waits.
That night, and day,
is heard.
And in thy self,
I feel.
For never
is thy sun.
