| These two poems are probably my favroit ones as of the moment. I got At First Sight off some web-site a long time ago. I really liked it so I ended up saving it. The other one I got out of this poetry book. There are about 100+ poems in this book and Tears Fall in my Heart was the only one that stood out for me. Not a very good book I have to say. |
| Tears Fall in My Heart By: Paul Verlaine |
| Tears fall in my heart as rain falls on the town; what is this numb hurt that enters my heart? Ah, the soft sound of rain on roofs, on the ground! To a dulled heart there came, ah, the song of the rain! Tears without reason in the disheartened heart. What? no trace of treason? This grief's without reason. It's far the worst pain to never know why without love or disdain my heart has such pain! |
| At First Sight By: Robert Graves |
| Love at first sight, some say, misnaming Discovery of twinned helplessness Against the huge tug of procreation. But friendship at first sight? This also catches fiercely at the surprised heart So that the cheek blanches and then blushes. |
| So what does that tell us. Don't buy into that love at first sight BS. Love takes time and work. I know this. |
