I Love You Even Though I Know

Music: Prelude in B-flat minor.
By Dimitri Shostakovich. Sequenced by J. Marques.

Alpha List

I love you even though I know
You show no love for me.
Your eyes are icy springs that feed
My hidden ecstasy.

All night I hold you in my arms
And sleep in your embrace.
All day I turn away from life
To gaze upon your face.

Alone I find within my heart
A black and raging sea,
For only you, beloved one,
Can calm my Galilee.
