Love is not all: it is not meat nor drink
Nor slumber nor a roof against the rain;
Nor yet a floating spar to men that sink
And rise and sink and rise and sink again;

I'm sorry I love you as more than a friend,
But the love that I have doesn't come to an end.
You dwell in my thoughts, and to my mind I will keep
A love that's for you, a love I hide deep

Famous Poem
The fountains mingle with the river
And the rivers with the ocean,
The winds of heaven mix for ever
With a sweet emotion;
It's been 2 months since you left
And I think about you every day,
Whenever I get lonely
I remember what you used to say
Waiting for you to call...
Knowing that you won't...
Hoping for you to come by...
Waiting...
Famous Poem
You will come one day in a waver of love,
Tender as dew, impetuous as rain,
The tan of the sun will be on your skin,
The purr of the breeze in your murmuring speech,
Famous Poem
I went out to the woods to-day
To hide away from you,
From you a thousand miles away—
But you came, too.
Famous Poem
The gay young men and the love-sick girls,
and the abandoned widows suffering in sleepless delirium,
and the young pregnant wives of thirty hours,
and the raucous cats that cruise my garden in the shadows,
