These days will pass
These nights
Will no more be ;
Of staring alone
At a starry sky ;
This crushing burden
Of loneliness
Will no more
My soul anchor
To the earth ;
A certain joy
Will replace
This agony
Of an aching heart ;
And these lost looks
On my face
Will someday fade ,
Into a meaningful smile ;
Till then ,
O come all woes
I welcome you !
