THE WAR OF LOVE

Silver castles,
Bloody battles;
The slash of swords,
Breaking of bones.
They both fought right in  there.
With all his might,
For kingdom, for pride,
He braved her troops by the side.
He conquered most, 
Piercing through their ghosts, until
He dared to look into her eyes,
A war won, paying a heavy price.
Her eyes that glowed
Brighter than the blood that flowed;
As her soldiers fell to dust.
She quietly had won the war of lust,
And had stolen the most precious ruby
On his chest!

FAIRER THAN THEE..

Fairer than thee, beloved,
Fairer than thee
There is one thing, beloved
Fairer than thee.
Not the yellow sun, beloved,
Bright though it beams,
Not the green earth, beloved,
Silver with streams.
Not the blue sky, beloved
Clear with light,
Not fairer still, beloved,
Star crowned night.
Not the gay birds, beloved,
Happy and free,
Yet there is one thing beloved,
Fairer than thee.
Truth in her eyes, beloved,
Grand in her sway;
Truth with her eyes, beloved,
Clearer than day.
Is the one thing beloved,
Fairer than thee.
Then shall I deem beloved,
Thou art she,
And there shall be naught, beloved,
Fairer than thee!
