EXTASE, by JOSEPH KLING First Line: Your beauty is a golden tide Last Line: May the end never be! Subject(s): Hearts; Love | |||
Your beauty is a golden tide Half-mist, half-light On which my heart is afloat. .... No cup in Heaven will have The soft red rim of your lips. I hear your voice sing low. .... The world is fading, dying; Only you and I still live, A flame in the sunless void. ....
