A Lingering Plea

My bewildering sigh
Don’t take those lips from me 
Now, for I will swoon 
And wither 
An endless quiver of forsaking 
For you’ll be breaking 
My heart that longs for you 
So 
And go 
Never more and adore her
And ere
That doesn’t compare
With my deepest affections 
For you 
Come back to me now 
For I vow 
I will vanish 
Into a darkish 
Depths
