I Am Not Yours

Sara Teasdale, 1884 - 1933

 

I am not yours, not lost in you,
Not lost, although I long to be
Lost as a candle lit at noon,
Lost as a snowflake in the sea.

You love me, and I find you still
A spirit beautiful and bright,
Yet I am I, who long to be
Lost as a light is lost in light.

Oh plunge me deep in love — put out
My senses, leave me deaf and blind,
Swept by the tempest of your love,
A taper in a rushing wind.

Happy New Year

As you can see

I stopped doing Photo-of-the-Day

I tried to keep up with it, but since the loss of my ZuZu, I have found no joy in doing it.

So I gave up.

Why go through the motions if it doesn't bring you pleasure?
