I will love you till the world has passed

I will love you till the world has passed,
though I offer it not a moment more,
Because love is too good to last and last.

The first love among rosy cheeks comes fast
which is far too soon to forget; therefore
I will love you till the world has passed.

A truce among parallel souls not asked,
It blossomed then withered which I adore
because love is too good to last and last.

immeasurable love, humble, pure, vast
that fuels, the fire, igniting my core,
I will love you till the world has passed

dwindling on a memory you cast.
The hot hunger for the craving before
Because love is too good to last and last.

All good things end; they are not unsurpassed.
Since fear of losing it, makes me want more
I will love you till the world has passed
Because love is too good to last and last.
