My lover yet unloved
Maria withers in the fold of languishing age
In my heart, this long preserved as of end of time enrage,
Abreast the clover of sustained beleaguered,
Thus, tide abound as my enamor amount in steamed upheaval,
And the wit of my flushing youth repent with penny power,
Maria, the patriarchy palm of time has supple wild at this nick hour,
Beneath a wandering gaze, shutter my niggling thoughts,
For my faith abounds in naught,
As of these confessional hour,
Alas! your wandering state lies in paradox,
Maria, please bequeath my gaze,
As of cloud-nine embrace,
My love is grave,
And by my souring heart engraved,
Maria, be elated in your spirit,
If your soul so bid well of me,
Be kindle,
As your tongue bridle in dispute of this plight,
For i have all to carter,
As we acquaint our hearts to bridal greater
