Longing
I’m longing for you. . .
As the robin longs for spring,
I know not what degree of warmth;
Your advent to my frozen xyst shall bring.
I’m longing for you. . .
Please take me where I belong;
Oh! I hope the spring comes soon,
I await the robin sing his first song.
Benumbed are my nerves,
To come and thaw I adjure –
Oh! Come now, quench this longing;
For yours and only yours forever,
I will constantly be belonging.
