HE LOVED. - ZaunköniG - 18.06.2007 HE LOVED. "HE loved me once!" What words are these - "He loved!" Past tense, past love, past joy, past hope, past dream,— All things that were and are not,—how they seem To crowd around and mock the love disproved, The former bliss, by ages long removed; The light, far off as farthest star's pale beam That sheds through trackless space its fitful gleam. Which once, our sun, we welcomed and approved. How dear that was which lies here stark and dead While we sit watching in God's awful sight, He knows; but hath no dew of healing shed, Nor any grace doth proffer us,—by night And change and death who are discomfited,— No single hope to turn our dark to light. |
