I dreamt of you again, my love
of how you held my hand.
I dreamt we kissed again, my love
barefoot on the sand.

I felt your breath upon my neck
your eyes upon my soul.
A king of hearts in my life's deck
broke down my self-control.

I knelt before this love of mine
this Eros in the flesh.
My heart is wrapped in bleeding twine
your rejection still stings fresh.

And now my heart is dead, my love
and I cry bitter tears.
you were my first, my one, my love
and you confirmed my fears.
