Today, it hurts

Tomorrow, its worse

"O my love, you reminisce!

Much too much in days like this,"

Morning, I reel

Evening, I feel

"Every time and in between!

I will show you what I mean

Slow to anger, quick to dream

Grief is not as long as it seems,"

Tonight, it aches

Tomorrow, I wake

When are these humours mending?

I see nothing but the ending

I know nothing--no comprehending

In dark, it pains

In light, it rains

"Take my hand! O take my hand!

I will make you understand

You are still, just a child

Bright, beautiful, tender and mild

Let go, your cares, for some other day

Dream! O dream! as sweet as you may

Not for a moment--for ever be

At peace, at rest, tranquility

Darling, love, rest your head

Rest your weary head on me,"
