Unsung

For Dante Alighieri

Unsung

You are the king of my universe
your poetry sets my heart ablaze
where the river was born to a peaceful flow
we stand together as one sweet soul

In this the tempestuous ocean of life
our paths have never crossed
there is no greater sorrow
knowing our hands will never touch
but you are deep within me

my love of poetry
has led me to your wisdom

"Love which absolves no one is beloved from loving"

you have captured my imagination
 with your fiery charm

and for eternity you will stay
 
but I?
 
I, my love...
 
 will die my sweet death unsung.
