"You die, O thrice desired
And my desire has flown like a dream
Gone with you is the girdle of my beauty
But I myself must live who am a goddess
And may not follow you
Kiss me yet once again, the last, long kiss
Until I draw your soul within my lips
And drink down all your love."
ALONE
From childhood’s hour I have not been
As others were—I have not seen
As others saw—I could not bring
My passions from a common spring—
From the same source I have not taken
My sorrow—I could not awaken
My heart to joy at the same tone—
And all I’ve lov’d, I’ve lov’d alone—
Then—in my childhood—in the dawn
Of a most stormy life—was drawn
From ev’ry depth of good and ill
The mystery which binds me still—
From the torrent, or the fountain—
From the red cliff of the moutain—
From the sun that ‘round me roll’d
In its autumn tint of gold—
From the lightning in the sky
As it pass’d me flying by—
From the thunder and the storm—
And the cloud that took the form
(When the rest of Heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view.
[Edgar Allen Poe]
