How then shalt it be, <br />That in lying, depth be free, <br />Nor that death, part o'me, <br />Be givein' unto thee, <br />Yet depth' deep, swallow whole, <br />Takein' of thine mortal soul, <br />Heart' within thine hath stole, <br />In two, broken, as with fol' <br />Love is but thy very end, <br />Yet thy very gift thee hath send, <br />To me not, shalt thee mend, <br />Nor o' times' ol' be thee friend, <br />Be it but a game of chance, <br />Be it sorrow, yet loves' romance....... <br /> <br /> <br />GJW 19/02/07<br /><br />Geoff Warden<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/how-then-shalt-it-be/
