Love Poem: Darkest Realm

Written by: Frederic Parker

Darkest Realm

Then let not the sun's light fall upon me
Nor to caress my skin in warmer bond
For I care not if all my love has fled
To my forsaken realm if not beyond
For it stays with me in my time's increase
My wormwood memory will die from rot
As my passion's folly has held no peace
And stabs my soul with what yesterday brought
Could that memories find a rainbow's wish
Or remove tears when crossing lost love's ground
Again find peace if I should reminisce
It cannot be relived if even found
Let darkness come to imprison my heart
It shall be chained there until I depart
