WRITTEN IN THE BELIEF THAT ELYSIUM

IS THE ULTIMATE BLISS

There was a dream I had,
So long ago,
Of an Elysium;
I asked of you, who were forlorn and sad,
Will you not come
To my Elysium?

I said that there
Is love’s rebirth
And happiness for you and no more care,
But you were bound and bonded to the earth
And could not come
To my Elysium!

This is the dream I still possess
Of you and for your happiness;
Today, it is the only way
To love and my Elysium;

Will you not come ?
Or must dreams stay
As dust within
The mind’s archives?

We could begin
Our thousand lives
Of bliss and win far more than this,
If only you would come,
But come
Alone to my Elysium!
