No one but Night, with tears on her dark face, watches beside me in this windy place.
Edna St. Vincent MillayHeap not on this mound roses that she loved so well; why bewilder her with roses that she cannot see or smell.
Edna St. Vincent MillaySHE is neither pink nor pale, And she never will be all mine; She learned her hands in a fairy-tale, And her mouth on a valentine. She has more hair than she needs; In the sun โtis a woe to me! And her voice is a string of colored beads, Or steps leading into the sea. She loves me all that she can, And her ways to my ways resign; But she was not made for any man, And she never will be all mine.
