Shadow Me Pail

This is about a lovers hidden love from his once youthful love whose beauty is pale in comparison to a newer sought love with someone else.

My head doth lay upon thy chest

it doth wonder why mine heart cannot take rest

for maybe it is another heart you have taken to yourself

hiding it ever so deep within 

mine heart so attune to thine

that I feel her ever so close

Close enough to see her face shadowed in thine eyes

for you do not look upon me as once you did

Love love why has thou failed me in mine time of old
