Testi Tender Renown - Dying Passion

Tender Renown

I hide myself within my flower,\nThat wearing on your breast,\nYou, unsuspecting, wear me too «џ\nAnd angels know the rest.\nI hide myself within my flower,\nThat, fading from your vase,\nYou, unsuspecting, feel for me Almost a loneliness.\nHe touched me, so I live to know\nThat such a day, permitted so,\nI groped upon his breast.\nIt’s a boundless place to me,\nAnd silence, as the awful sea\nPuts minor streams to rest.\nAnd now, I’m different from before,\nAs of I breathed superior air,\nOr brushed a royal grown;\nMy feet, too, that had wandered so,\nMy gypsy face transfigured now\nTo tender renown.
