The play of death enacted is now done

 

My heart’s distraught and dead is my desire

For he whom I did love is torn from me.

The skin that he touched is a witches fire

So in my heart I wonder,can this be?

The play of death enacted now is done’

To home and to the real I have returned

Yet no more through this door will my king come.

Oh God and cunning angels, you me spurn.

What is my world when he I loved is gone?

How to see and feel now I am bare.

Yet is this not the fate of everyone?

History reveals what others daren’t.

The pain of loss in labour for my heart

To be reborn, to make, soon,one more start
