My Lady Who Cries the Night Away

My Lady Who Cries the Night Away

By: Adam M. Snow

 

My lady who cries the night away

dost thou not know another way?

Be ye still afraid of thy dream

'Tis varied by the Dream.

Ye be not a life so free,

my maiden my life of thee be me.

Lest beknownst thy drowning fear

that hangs before her all the year.

 

Besought the light that now grows dim,

hope for once the love of him.

Thy cherish thy love be it not true

like the tears she shed twinkling blue.

 

Lest thy heart burdened be

lest she glimpse eternity.

My lady who cries the night away

dost thou not know another way?

 

O' ye be a wakeful woe

glimpse of life, love bestow.

O'er thy morning dove doesth not sing?

My lady, she cries for her fallen king.

Reviews

[Forgotten Soldier]

This reminds me strongly of a shakesperian play that my class once read. I can't remember which one it was though. It might have been Romeo and Juilet or Much Ado About Nothing, I can't remember. Very nice write, I like oldpoems. Very good old English used and wonderful use of repepition. I enjoy reading your poetry. In fact, I enjoy read everyone's poems on here. It's clear that you were all taught well. Good job!

So beautifully written in the ole English format. Thus doth great justice to the form and brings my heart great joy to read.

As soldier alluded to this piece has that lovely old world feel to it - well done.

[Jenni-Chan]

that is a sad poem. is it for someone you know or was it just something you came up with?

[Dahlia Phoenix]

Pain makes a better tomorrow.
Pain makes the world a reality.
All said simply like that.

I like the Shakespearean format you use for this and gives it more feeling than other certain poems. It has a nice touch to it.

The pains of life seem to bring out the best in work
