Algernon Charles Swinburne - Dead LoveAlgernon Charles Swinburne - Dead Love
Work rating: Medium


Dead love, by treason slain, lies stark, White as a dead stark-stricken dove: None that pass by him pause to mark   Dead love. His heart, that strained and yearned and strove As toward the sundawn strives the lark, Is cold as all the old joy thereof. Dead men, re-risen from dust, may hark When rings the trumpet blown above: It will not raise from out the dark   Dead love.
