Love
I Love You, Dear!
From A Modern Faust and Other Poems
Love
I LOVE you, dear, and we must part,
Although your heart be on my heart !
I love thee, though thou art not mine ;
I love ; yet I may ne'er be thine !
And will our passion ne'er be fed.
But wait, and wither, and lie dead ?
Alas ! it seems a world made ill.
Where poor love may not find her fill !
