Goodbye

by WALTER DE LA MARE
Do you see? Oh, do you see? —
Speak, and some inward self that accent knows
Which bids the East its rose disclose
And daybreak wake in me.
Speak, and some inward self that accent knows
Which bids the East its rose disclose
And daybreak wake in me.
Do you hear? Oh, do you hear? —
This heart whose pulse like menacing night-bird cries?
Dark utter dark, most dear, is in these eyes,
When gaunt Goodbye draws near.
