Edward cannot help but feel
A necessary, never ending tenderness for Jane,
But only you,
It is only you, Jane
That the Raven no longer allows him to keep
And hold
And speak with
Only you, in his heart
And it grinds inside the dark raven so, as the dark raven knows how Edward loves her so
And the dark raven is
Like a broken gear but now the sad Edward fears
that he cannot leave
Cannot ever go,
Showering love like silver, choking
Him, a deep pool of ghastly, airless water
He needs Jane more than ever,
Even just as a friend, though
He yearns for her in body and heart
And soul
Edward & Jane
Kindred in word and deed,
Bottled up letters of love,
A messy tenderness of growing seed.

This is beautiful. It is expressive of the frustrations when it comes to falling in love.
