Unrequited

"As twilight faded, he remembered his vow He turned to the heavens and took a bow Her smile greeted him, like others before Tonight, he sings alone on the moor As she lifted her dusky veil The brightest stars stood in awe Aphrodite's venom poisoned his veins As his eyes fell on her gleaming face All the world stood witness to this serenade The night breathed truth to his soul His mind whispered reason to his heart His heart yelled hope to the skies The dawn neared, she bid her adieu Stepped onto the chariot of stygian clouds The wolf howled his love to the moon Knowing his euphony would never grace her soul"
