In Thy Nightmares Be My Dreary Dreams Sweet Poem by Jessel Jane Tevar Toring

In thy nightmares be my dreary dreams sweet,
only let thy lone heart lay on my bed;
O that in thy pain doth my heavens meet!
Let in thy thoughts be my lullabies spread.
Hush, let not sorrow dance away our love-
let not in mere fate bequeath this our love.
Sleep, never weep, thy nightmares must I have;
Thy fears would I own, thy misery, beloved.
In mine skin find refuge, no more bereave.
Mine lips be thy rest, mem'ries to conceive.
Sleep, for the moon's deep asleep in my skies,
brace comfort, seduce desire in thy cries,
Sleep, ne'er weep, let thy darkest night bemoan
only let thy lone heart lay on my own.
