Inspiration Credits: Edgar Allen Poe
Let this love of us,
last beyond the dusk,
When the dawn comes let her see,
your beauty warring the sea.
For your face is as serene,
but so elegant she could never be.
You have and forever shall be,
My beautiful, my sweet Annabel Lee.
Let this love of us last beyond the lies,
Let me be a support in your cries,
Hand in hand, eyes in eyes,
Let me with you in your lows and highs.
Let the world see, what could never be,
Let it admire what it never will be,
Not so appealing as you are to be,
Not so pious as you always will be,
cos you are and forever shall be
My beautiful, my sweet Annabel Lee.
These stars so bright, that sparkle the night,
can’t hold a candle to your might.
They whisper they wail,
yet they fail,
to shine beyond your shine,
to reach beyond your reach.
For you have and forever shall be,
My beautiful, my sweet Annabel Lee.
Let the world see, what it could never be,
the beauty privileged only to me,
what they quench but can’t breathe,
what they long but can’t conceive,
what you have and forever shall be,
My beautiful, my sweet Annabel Lee.
I long to see what none could see,
I long to be what none could be,
the sparkle of your smile,
the tear of your eyes,
the blush of your cheeks,
the lush of your lips.
I long to be, I die to live
the love of your life, the morn of your night.
Forever I hold you dear to me, forever shall I ask,
Am I asking much for me?
Cos to be or not to be,
Is the question left in me,
You are and forever shall be,
My beautiful, my sweet Annabel lee.
