In its frank surrender;
With the vowing of thy mouth,

Made for earnest granting;
💥 Taking colour from the skies,
💥 Can Heaven’s truth be wanting?

Love me with their lids, that fall 💥
Snow-like at first meeting; 💥

Love me with thine hand stretched out Freely open-minded: 💥
Love me with thy loitering foot,
Hearing one behind it. 💥

Love me with thy voice, that turns
Sudden faint above me;

When I murmur ‘Love me!’ 💥

Love me with thy thinking soul, 💥
Break it to love-sighing;

💥 On through living ~ dying. 💥

💥 Love me in thy gorgeous airs
When the world has crowned thee;
💥 Love me, kneeling at thy prayers,
With the angels round thee.

Love me pure, as muses do,
Up the woodlands shady:
Love me gaily, fast and true,
As a winsome lady.

Farther off or nigher,

And something higher.💥

Thus, if thou wilt proves me,
Dear, 💥
Woman’s love no fable, 💥
I will love thee half a year 💥
As a man is able. 💥
