WHEN LOVE HAS NO PLEASURE
by Robert Davidson
Yours is the heartbeat I yearn to own
As I touch and lightly stroke your red-gold hair;
I almost feel the kiss of you upon my mouth,
But you push me aside, I stand in despair.
Who has loved has lived full measure,
Even tho' the wind sighs like a muted violin.
But when love has no pleasure
The tense strings throb no more.
One starlight night I thought to steal a kiss.
To bend your will to mine, my single goal;
But a waning moon stared icily down,
'Cause hurting you was like fighting my soul.
Who has loved has lived full measure,
Even tho' the wind sighs like a muted violin.
But when love has no pleasure
The tense strings throb no more.

Beautifully penned. Tis true that when the lover turn away the violin strings are silent. Sadly, never to play the beautiful music of love again. Your imagery is beautiful.

I second all the preceding comments. A strong and beautiful write, and unrequited love is a powerful and raw subject.
