Let it be you who lean above me On my last day, Let it be you who shut my eyelids Forever and aye. Say a "Good-night" as you have said it All of these years, With the old look, with the old whisper, And without tears. You will know then all that in silence You always knew, Though I have loved, I loved no other As I love you. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...POETS ARE BORN NOT MADE by ROBERT FROST THE EXECUTIVE by DAVID IGNATOW THE BOSTON ATHENAEUM by AMY LOWELL SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY: HENRY PHIPPS by EDGAR LEE MASTERS SPIRITUAL ISOLATION: A FRAGMENT by ISAAC ROSENBERG BACKGROUND AND DESIGN by KAREN SWENSON |
