Percy Bysshe Shelley - Time Long Past
Work rating: Medium

I.
Like the ghost of a dear friend dead
Is Time long past.
A tone which is now forever fled,
A hope which is now forever past,
A love so sweet it could not last, 
Was Time long past.

II.
There were sweet dreams in the night
Of Time long past:
And, was it sadness or delight,
Each day a shadow onward cast 
Which made us wish it yet might last--
That Time long past.

III.
There is regret, almost remorse,
For Time long past.
`Tis like a child`s beloved corse 
A father watches, till at last
Beauty is like remembrance, cast
From Time long past.
