LOVE'S SECRET

EVER seek to tell thy love,
Love that never told can be;
For the gentle wind doth move
Silently, invisibly.

I told my love, I told my love,
I told her all my heart,
Trembling, cold, in ghastly fears.
Ah! she did depart!

Soon after she was gone from me,
A traveller came by,
Silently, invisibly:
He took her with a sigh.

-William Blake

For whenever you write poetry always be prepared to face yourself because when you let the words come to you then you leave a little bit up to fate.
