Midsummer You loved me for a little, Who could not love me long; You gave me wings of gladness And lent my spirit song. You loved me for an hour But only with your eyes; Your lips I could not capture By storm or by surprise. Your mouth that I remember With rush of sudden pain As one remembers starlight Or roses after rain…. Out of a world of laughter Suddenly I am sad…. Day and night it haunts me, The kiss I never had.
