In the mazes of loitering people, the watchful and furtive, The shadows of tree-trunks and shadows of leaves, In the drowse of the sunlight, among the low voices, I suddenly face you, Your dark eyes return for a space from her who is with you, They shine into mine with a sunlit desire, They say an 'I love you, what star do you live on?' They smile and then darken, And silent, I answer 'You too--I have known you,--I love you!--' And the shadows of tree-trunks and shadows of leaves Interlace with low voices and footsteps and sunlight To divide us forever. E is gone with his blue eyes, Whom I love most,-- Gone among the cliffs and fog On a far coast,-- He who scatters wit and pride From his keen tongue, He who finds himself so deep And is so young;-- He whose joy is in sweet words And kindliness,-- Whom old men love, and little boys No whit the less. . . . Rooms are silent that were glad Seven days ago. I can feel across my heart The great tides flow. Love, the blind importunate, Craves touch and sight; Briefly parting, feels and fears Eternal night. Fear is sweeping on the wind Like acrid foam. I have said farewell to peace Till he comes home. |
