Poems (Lassen)/Buried Love

​
BURIED LOVE 

To a Departed Friend
Only Across the River

SHE buried her love as in a dream,
 Where lonely nature reigns supreme,
Where daisies nod and grasses grow,
And sighing branches whisper low;
  She buried her love here years ago.

Ah, Time has come, and time has flown.
 Together the bleeding wound has grown;
Yet mem'ries live, the scar is left
And tells forever the love bereft,
  The love she buried years ago.
