Subject(s): Wellesley College


COME soon! Before we both forget!
For alien months will blind.
I might behold your beauty yet,
Your words might charm my mind;
But new dreams ever bud and flower,
And old dreams fade and change;
A rose can wither in an hour,
And friendly eyes grow strange.
My heart still yearns to have you near,
I think you love me yet,
But Oh, come soon, my dear, my dear,
Before we both forget!
