First Line: Sometimes I think that I shall live again
Last Line: I shall return my own book to its shelf.
Alternate Author Name(s): Dalton, S. Foster
Subject(s): Books; Reading


Sometimes I think that I shall live again;
And chancing on these records of my times,
I'll wonder dimly at the hidden pain
Faded to quaintness in my early rhymes.

And then, maybe, I shall be vaguely pleased
To feel again the torture of myself;
And by the ancient anguish gently eased,
I shall return my own book to its shelf.
