TOWARDS DEMOCRACY: PART 3. PARTED LIPS by EDWARD CARPENTER

First Line: PARTED LIPS, BETWEEN WHICH LOVE DWELLS
Last Line: YET HERE THE GATE OF ALL THE WORLD TO ME.
Subject(s): FAREWELL; LOVE; PARTING;
PARTED lips, between which love dwells—
Only a little space of breath and shadow,
Yet here the gate of all the world to me.
