revealing is the silent speech unsaid

though i madam sunshine is two miles

away from sun or any a shine

like when the fly and flowers wed

a mutual bondage,the day is never mine

its loyalty to leading into darkness it has pledge

like midnights peak,in belgrade,in cold

belgrade,i lost a heart on the very edge

of the dogs nose,and to withhold it for

several ages,although my pledge is my pledge

o far away darling,the ageing knee to crawl

for just its hearts lust.I walked gently by

i passed pinless by,like a tongueless fowl

then you called me back,to imply

that the feeling was mutual why,why

then has affection turned on its head,why

I think I got most of your meaning but you may want to check your grammer or find a mentor to help with the translation.
