Hold your ground

My love , do help me stay away

Show me how to unlove you

In the fall , I'll crawl and fade away,

Like the twinkling drops of dew !

 

I hope your life is as vivid as your eyes,

And your summer's cheerful too.

In my gloomy morning underlies,

A memory that clings to you !

 

The days are cold and nights are dry,

Every song is breaking me.

With the anguished heart I pacify

The soul, that's damned with me !

 

So, In the pointless gloom I seek

A wisdom , that no shall speak,

The pain that love shall wreak,

And a dream that preys on weak

 

The past , a callous hound,

Can sniff and hunt us down

Oh heart ! Dost hold your ground

It's an all or nothing town
