If Only: A New Year Wish

If only I, a soul, could fall in love

And be complete with you, on a new day,

Or, would, as I unnoticed go and pray

with time, perhaps, you'll notice me hereof.

Alas, the sweetened blue reflects a dove

And I know true, you hear not what I say

As burdened my dear heart in shadows lay

With poison-tip spears and bleeding black glove;

And yet, today when I was gone so far

Your hair so bright and soothing, tempting I;

And removing loathsome poison to marr.

Eyes so blue the poison cannot scar,

With a glance to me I cannot then cry,

For you with golden locks never see me,

But seeing, searching, you has set me free.
