but only one to dream...
Sonnet 26/03/04 DCCCXCIX
I see within your eyes another world Where hope is measured by how much you smile. You glance at me, and all of soul is curled Around your pen: Can my verse find a style To win your favor? Should I dream of lips That whisper words of hope, or even pray For chance that I might kiss? My desire slips Into all I dream, and all that I say. I cannot pen control: It dashes on To speak on page of things I have no right To ask, or dream. How can I live upon My hopes, when dream is begging for heart's sight? I should not think to such a fool remain: In truth, I cannot heart's desire obtain.
