Yet another French poetic form for lovers...

Rondel : You came too late this time our tryst to keep

You came too late this time our tryst to keep
Lost in your reveries in other lives
So long, Mon Amour, just one thought survives

I must be away to lie in irked sleep
Linger not here where sours honey in hives
You came too late this time our tryst to keep
Lost in your reveries in other lives

Will your dreams bind with mine in sleep to reap
The hour when tolls true meaning of drives
Free as spirits cut loose by demon knives
You came too late this time our tryst to keep
Lost in your reveries in other lives
So long, Mon Amour, just one thought survives
