My beloved I would fall upon the sword of love for thee <br />I would surrender my holdings just to have you near <br />Looking into your eyes I am lost in a sea of magic blue <br />My heart has taken control and I no longer wish to fight <br />Oh that thou would see the enchantment you have cast upon this maiden <br />Your lips form my name and all is silent but thine words <br /> <br />In the midnight hour my soul tosses like a ship lost upon the ocean <br />My longing for you grows deeper er’ day <br />The beauty that thou brings into this maiden’s life <br />Is that of spring upon the mountain’s side <br />Forever does the essence of love linger in my heart <br />You the sweet honeysuckle I the ivy entwined in the forest green <br />My beloved how my soul wishes to flow with thine <br />To be one with you till my final breath<br /><br />Patricia Gale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-maiden-s-surrender/
