retirement poem

he's gone
one with you
i despise my friends more than you
a gleam of gold in gloom and gray
the ancient songs
melancholy days have come
the agony of having too much power
splendid and terrible your love
i made a vow once, one only
in september
for these white arms about my neck
quietly, with reverance, in awe
to the passionate lover
shades of night were falling fast
