anniversary poem

a thin gray shadow on the edge of thought
passing through huddled and ugly walls
with her hair flaying wildly
up to her chamber window
will you glimmer on the sea?
there's one that i once loved so much
i love the old melodious lays
i have known the silence of the stars and of the sea
which keeps
within this lowly grave a conqueror lies
the swan existing
the smell of the rose so false, the thorns so true
