Subject(s): Dusk
O Dusk, be not so sweet!
I could better bear the pain
Lashed by some relentless wind,
Drenched by chilling rain.
Dusk, Dusk, the scent of you
Leaves me faint and weak;
Dead arms hold me tenderly,
Dead lips my lips seek.
Haste Night, with your black veil,
Bring you a blinding storm:
I can no longer bear the feel
Of this Dusk, clinging, warm.
