I know now it cannot end
Eternity would have to bend
Before our love’s large strength
Which will suffer no reverse
Infinity’s enduring length
Is not as far as love can send
Its message to the universe.
The first day of the rest of our life
For which with you the best summing up
Is pain, joy, love, a little strife...
Oh, long the day you are not near!
Though there’s no cloud the sun is dim
How long the day where you’re not here...
