with graceful words you scathe
and sting with gentle flame
from you would i receive
words' softly searing blame
with love i do accept
that which is your claim
nor shall it divert me
love remains the same
dark night, day dawns slowly
and there is just one aim
steady and with no doubt
my voice will call your name

i was surprised that i could do the 'old fashioned' feel here. i am not very good at poetry with a formal tone. i am not even sure how i did that, i did not try as such, but the person i wrote this of/to/for, was older, so maybe that did the trick.
