On a Grey Thread/Love Song

by Elsa Gidlow

Love Song

My love, you destroy me, you rend,   You tear me apart.You are a wild swan I have caught   And housed in my heart.

My sister, my love, I am shattered,   Broken, dismayed.The live wings, the wild wings are beating,   They make me afraid.

Fold your wings, brood like a dove,   Be a dove I can cherishMore calmly, my dear, my tempestuous love,   Or I perish.
