My dreams, my dreams! What has become of their sweetness? What indeed has become of my youth?
summer dream heart
I've lived to bury my desires and see my dreams corrode with rust now all that's left are fruitless fires that burn my empty heart to dust. Struck by the clouds of cruel fate My crown of Summer bloom is sere Alone and sad, I watch and wait And wonder if the end is near. As conquered by the last cold air When Winter whistles in the wind Alone upon a branch that's bare A trembling leaf is left behind.

dream lonely grief
I have outlasted all desire, My dreams and I have grown apart; My grief alone is left entire, The gleamings of an empty heart.

Thus on a naked tree-limb, blasted By tardy winter's whistling chill, A single leaf which has outlasted Its season will be trembling still.
