Time Stand Still

What then is love but mourning?
What desire but burning?

Time stands still
Time stands still

Each body pulsing with its own time path
Each body unknown and wrapped in its (?)
in that loneliness
I heard lips whispering,
My hands and my skin
The need for contact
I dreamed only
So that one might hook and swell
For you I am
and I am all yours
and my blood for you
Ages drying
Yet embers live
Yet flames do die

Time stands still
Time stands still

Tender grass is easily mown
Yet who shall shake a sturdy oak?
You are more fresh and fair than (?)
Yet stubs do live
when flowers die

Time stands still
Time stands still

Thinkst thou thy fortune still doeth (?)
For tomorrow thou must die
