O, For What An Ache?

O, what for a touch!

Thus, I hasten a step.
A whisper bound in love
Carried in every breath.

O, what for a taste!

Of thy forbidden kiss.
Thus, I hasten the pace
To dance upon your lips.

O, what for a glimpse!

Into thy flaming eyes
From the heavens were sent
Thus, I near by your side.

O, for what an ache?

That sunken in the mark!
Thy cheat on me, my mate
Thus, I run from your heart.
