Christina Georgina Rossetti - Wife To HusbandChristina Georgina Rossetti - Wife To Husband
Work rating: Low


Pardon the faults in me,  For the love of years ago:    Good-bye. I must drift across the sea,  I must sink into the snow,    I must die. You can bask in this sun,  You can drink wine, and eat:    Good-bye. I must gird myself and run,  Though with unready feet:    I must die. Blank sea to sail upon,  Cold bed to sleep in:    Good-bye. While you clasp, I must be gone  For all your weeping:    I must die. A kiss for one friend,  And a word for two,—    Good-bye:— A lock that you must send,  A kindness you must do:    I must die. Not a word for you,  Not a lock or kiss,    Good-bye. We, one, must part in two;  Verily death is this:    I must die.
