Evermore

far be it from me to see it
but a girl who has the world
should not at all ever
be in a situation whereas
she might be inclined slightly
to in the very least
come close to shedding a tear

she should be stately majesty
as I deem her in proper domain
which is everywhere and everlasting
soaring over the mountains
rising up from the sea
giving life from the birth
air from the foliage

this one is wonderful
this one is life but for me she resides apart
and I look on to not see reveille in beauty
but her in such undeserved sadness
