Pining

As now I gather what lies around
Last autumn leaf falls off naked branch
His kisses I strip from thirsty lips
And seal them away in heart's chamber
His scent I inhale once again
Lest I forget what calm it brings
His touch I peel from my every pore
Warm embers for lonely nights
His heart! Alas! What shall I do?
Is it even mine to take?
How lovely a man I have to love!
How wretched my fate I must walk away...
