Coma Berenices

First of my kind and perhaps the only that will ever be.​

I was once unnoticed, my shining light consumed by the void,​

but finally, my sacrifice has been dearly acknowledged​

'Twas an act of true love, aye, as aspects of war are a mighty dividing force​

That confined my mind into small spaces and locked away my joy.​

Lo, my tresses, which warmed the heart of Venus and rosied her cheeks,​

For never has she witnessed devotion and passion this sweet.​

My offering has been blessed by divine transcendence​

And now I must part with my loving gift, as my sentiments are sincere -

Melancholy is a stranger to my heart - as I glance up and see that you are near,​

Yet I still taste the sweet lemon, but vehemently I bid thee farewell – adieu, adieu.
