1. Return to affection, then return
And with the borders, torture spend

2. Think not I forgot a promise
That was for you before promises

3. The feast has passed, you did not ask
Nor with the message have you been generous

4. For every feast we have gazelles
That are generous with the feast, if you are miserly

5. So my crying is not for love
You killed it with what you reaped

6. We turned away just as you turned away
Did we regret like you regretted?

7. If I wished, there would be a love
Exceeding in fire what you knew

8. I created you with passion, so you were
The torment of my heart when aloof

9. How can you touch if we wake
From passion like you woke?

10. I cry for you over you
With poetry, and you are the inspired

11. Despair not ever from a heart
You in its depths have dwelled
