| Love! LOVE! if thou lov'st me, give me but one sign- One sign, one look, one touch: I ask no more, No more-no less: a numbing doubt is mine, Does Love's great sea break on a phantom shore? O I am weak that I have asked so much: My love has dropped to earth from heights of blue: One sign, one tell-tale look, one lingering touch, Feed it with this and it will soar anew. Give me no answer; let me guess my fate: One sign, one look, one touch, one quick-drawn breath: Not now-not yet: I am content to wait, Wait through all time, if need be, wait till death; Wait through all time for what may never come, Wait till at last my beating heart grows dumb.. |
