How calm you were, and oh how unaware,
While I, on seeing you, knew I'd awaked
From ignorance of what it means to care
Beyond the point where nothing can be faked.
Before of us the one the other heard
How surely did the gaze bestowed on me
Announce outright, without a single word,
The change from minor into major key.
Then when you spoke I yielded without fear
To that sweet music ever in your voice
And swore allegience to a captor dear,
The guardian of my faculty of choice.
And when, with my reply, I touched your soul,
Love joined our separate parts to make us whole.
