I SAID, "LOVE IS GONE"

I said, "Love is gone;
 I need bear no more
Terrible dawn
 And midnight sore
Hungering dreams
 I cannot keep
And fever-streams
 Across my sleep . . ."

And the sun went down,
 And the day burned black
Over the town
 And Love came back
And my heart was burned
 With fire and pain—
But Love had returned,
 Had returned again!
