that bids farewell to suffering that eventrue love, in no measure, can assuage.. why such anguish, borne upon once broadshoulders that now do sag, no longer able.

SLEEP SHALL COME, perhaps not today,
But soon, an eternal, blessed slumber
That bids farewell to suffering that even
True love, in no measure, can assuage.
Why such anguish, borne upon once broad
Shoulders that now do sag, no longer able
To withstand the weight of both our worlds?
Come, O Sleep, on velvet wings of night.

GIVE ME MY ROMEO; and, when he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun.

TWO BROTHERS FROM IRELAND flew to Brooklyn and sought to speak with the GB, years ago, when Lyman Swingle and Milton Henschel were on board. Absolute refusal to meet with them.
There's a video interview with the pair, where they express their disbelief and disappointment.

Thank you, Divergent! Well expressed.
I can read those very sentiments into what I wrote, although my initial thought was that of a person to whom one gives one's all.
With gratitude . . .

My, how that helps. Nonetheless, I will vanquish those lofty peaks from the safety afforded me by Rosebud [Citizen Kane].
Gratefully . . .

HEAVY, HEAVY UPON MY FAILING HEART weighs
Your aching need for my full and loving devotion.
I spend myself willingly on your behalf because,
Truly, your needs and wishes outstrip my own.
If I were young and wiry man, for you
I'd scale a rock and brave a torrent.
Yes, that is what I do, no thought of self,
To save my love from daily peril.
Strength and life escape my soul while
Safety I afford your gasping heart.
It's no loss I gave my all to grant
You life and to bid mine adieu.
the sea once held this youngster's heart within its mighty bosom.i loved and cherished the sea, stretching outward beyond infinity.
i took to the e'er dreary landscape, the dank surroundings soothing me, enveloping me in crawling mists that were more welcomed to me than the evaporating rays of a cavorting summer sun.i, however, am no longer that pensive lad who found comfort in the dark and cold and deep blue sea.
today, a man in the physical sense, i no longer possess that childlike fascination with my former abode.
SHE PEERS INTO WATER whose blackness is obsidian,
Waters deeper than an Atlantic trench that swallows down
Unwary mariners in search of mysterious ports of call.
Is it a wandering lost love she seeks, a foolish man who
Abandoned hearth and home and love in search of El
Dorado, that hidden city of overgrown ruins?
The woman looks in vain, for these waters can no more be
Fathomed than the heart of the lover who left her when
Seduced by elusive riches that beckoned from beyond.
