When time is old I fold my dreams
Within the earth and let them lie
Knowing that nothing’s what it seems
And hopes diminish to a sigh
Save when I look into new time
Glowing gold outside the range
Of everyday – for with you I’m
Fulfilled – I need no dreams. It’s strange
But perfect; my new world with you
For its ingredients I taste
And satisfied I want no view
No dreamscape other – that’s a waste
Of my new time, in which to see
You breathe, look in your dazzling eyes
And hold all heaven close to me
And live beneath your better skies
