Forgive Me Love Poem by Nero CaroZiv

Forgive Me Love



Forgive me love that I cannot speak
On these mighty, between the two of us things
Forgive me that I have not the lion courage nor the eagle's wing
That what I want to be, I know not where and how to seek

And to think that I was not over meek
In rolling out rants and raves up followed thundering's
Even to the steep of haughty in vanity of springs
Were I so of ample strength to bestow on you such freak

If I could only see what in me had not created gentler observation
For the presents and your divine presence that I was blest from you
And our walks along bright golden sands of the vast ocean
Which the emerald wavelets at your feet gladly threw

Who can bring back the nights we loved on a fair summer eve
Just before streams of waning dusk poured down from the vermilion West
And on the balmy wind tranquil rest
The silver clouds, like old clan were far away to leave

All in meaner young careless thoughts, and take sweet reprieve
From your laughs and your wantonness and find with easy quest
This moment of eternal fragrant wild wrapped with nature's beauty driest
Such a pure and holy precious delight with its mortality my soul deceive

Forgive me love if you can
Now in gray autumn leaning on my wooden cane
I saw and I failed in existence for you and me
What I wanted and yearned for you to be
