Arthur Symons - Wasted BeautyArthur Symons - Wasted Beauty
Work rating: Low


This beauty is vain, this, born to be wasted, Poured on the ground like water, spilled, and by no man tasted; This, born to be loved, unloved shall remain Till in white dust the lovely bones whiten again; Till, dust in white dust, this high heart shall be still, It shall desire and its labour be lost, it shall not have its will; You, armies had met, once, if you turned your head: Shall there be nothing changed? nothing, when you are dead.
