TO EDITH
Autori:
Throug the long years
I sought peace,
I found ecstasy,
I found anguish,
I found madness,
I found loneliness,
I found the solitary pain,
That gnaws the heart,
But peace I did not find.
Now, old and near my end,
I have known you,
And, knowing you,
I have found both ecstasy and peace
I know rest After so many long years.
I know what life and love may be.
Now, if I sleep
I shall sleep fulfilled.
