Fate of Thou and I

If I cannot have thee

what life is there to live?

For thou has woven thous way into my heart

with thous pointed needle and thread.

At last, I give hand my love to thee

only to be struck by mine and thous fate.

Death knocks on my door

the woeful cries of the sickening, hard-hearted beast inside. 

If thou mustn't be with me

Then nowhere shall I belong without thee.

My heart; a beaten, blackened, broken sorrow

While thous is living, brilliant, and luminous like the stars.

I cry to thee

Nocturnal weeps against my bedding.

Timeless, countless, staggering, solitary hours

Sobbing to thee and blubbering to us and what we could have been. 

Love; a dagger

A weapon to be used

Lovely but deadly on thous enemies.

Tell me what love is to thee

As thou twists the dagger into my heart.

Show me the love thou give

As thou slain me to a corpse.

May God love thou more than myself

Treasure you to the gates of the angels.

For I could not provide thee with such joyous prizes

Or give life to thou and the universe.

My love, know the love and strength I present

For these may be our last moments in this lifetime.

Thou is my everything and thou is my guiding light

If I cannot have thee

what life is there to live?
