　　：Dreams

　　I do not care to talk to you although

　　Your speech evokes a thousand sympathies,

　　And all my being's silent harmonies

　　Wake trembling into music. When you go

　　It is as if some sudden, dreadful blow

　　Had severed all the strings with savage ease.

　　No, do not talk; but let us rather seize

　　This intimate gift of silence which we know.

　　Others may guess your thoughts from what you say,

　　As storms are guessed from clouds where darkness broods.

　　To me the very essence of the day

　　Reveals its inner purpose and its moods;

　　As poplars feel the rain and then straightway

　　Reverse their leaves and shimmer through the woods.

　　：A Fixed Idea

　　What torture lurks within a single thought

　　When grown too constant, and however kind,

　　However welcome still, the weary mind

　　Aches with its presence. Dull remembrance taught

　　Remembers on unceasingly; unsought

　　The old delight is with us but to find

　　That all recurring joy is pain refined,

　　Become a habit, and we struggle, caught.

　　You lie upon my heart as on a nest,

　　Folded in peace, for you can never know

　　How crushed I am with having you at rest

　　Heavy upon my life. I love you so

　　You bind my freedom from its rightful quest.

　　In mercy lift your drooping wings and go.

　　：To a Friend

　　I ask but one thing of you, only one,

　　That always you will be my dream of you;

　　That never shall I wake to find untrue

　　All this I have believed and rested on,

　　Forever vanished, like a vision gone

　　Out into the night. Alas, how few

　　There are who strike in us a chord we knew

　　Existed, but so seldom heard its tone

　　We tremble at the half-forgotten sound.

　　The world is full of rude awakenings

　　And heaven-born castles shattered to the ground,

　　Yet still our human longing vainly clings

　　To a belief in beauty through all wrongs.

　　O stay your hand, and leave my heart its songs!
