Sleeping Beauty
As starlight thaws its faded rays,
And moon unveils its hidden face,
Pray and read God’s holy scripts,
Then sweetly dream as I watchest thee.
Chivalry’s steel can’t block love’s blade,
Knights have fallen for thee my dame;
Yet, in sleep thou sayest this,
“I do lovest thee and only thee.”
Now I know that our souls aren’t twain,
They are so subtly intertwined;
Our hearts are ours, sweet 'Rylynn',
Thou art for me and I am for thee.
As night time falls with faded rays,
And ev’ning stars shine forth with grace,
Dream in peace sleeping beauty,
Never forget, I do lovest thee.
