Edna St. Vincent Millay - Not In This Chamber
Work rating: Low

Not in this chamber only at my birth— 
   When the long hours of that mysterious night 
   Were over, and the morning was in sight— 
I cried, but in strange places, steppe and firth 
I have not seen, through alien grief and mirth; 
   And never shall one room contain me quite 
   Who in so many rooms first saw the light, 
Child of all mothers, native of the earth. 
So is no warmth for me at any fire 
   To-day, when the world`s fire has burned so low; 
I kneel, spending my breath in vain desire, 
At that cold hearth which one time roared so strong, 
And straighten back in weariness, and long 
   To gather up my little gods and go.
