DO I love thee? Who can tell? Time was when I loved thee well: Is this love that now I bear, Or does Use Love's semblance wear? Should I grieve if thou wert gone? Should I miss thee, left alone? Would the summer be less sweet If our lips should never meet? If some other fairer Fair Fettered thee with silken snare, Should I sorrow to behold Thee her captive -- mine of old? Ah, it may be, should we part, I should learn how dear thou art, -- When the gods withdraw we know How divine the feet that go. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...CHARLOTTE CORDAY (REVOLUTIONARY TRIBUNAL, JULY 17, 1793) by EDGAR LEE MASTERS SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY: JOSEPH DIXON by EDGAR LEE MASTERS THE BRIDGE by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW PICTURE-SHOW by SIEGFRIED SASSOON |
