WAR IS KIND: 37, by                 Poet Analysis    
First Line: I have seen thy face aflame
Last Line: For I can think of thee.


I have seen thy face aflame
For love of me,
Thy fair arms go mad,
Thy lips tremble and mutter and rave.
And -- surely --
This should leave a man content?
Thou lovest not me now,
But thou didst love me,
And in loving me once
Thou gavest me an eternal privilege,
For I can think of thee.
