about

This is an amazing love poem by Laura Riding Jackson...our Valentine to you.

lyrics

A city seems between us.
It is only love,
Love like a sorrow still
After labour, after light.
The crowds are one.
Sleep is a single heart.
Filling the old avenues we used to know
With miracles of dark and dread
We dare not go to meet
Save as our own dead stalking
Or as two dreams walking
One tread and terrible
One cloak of longing in the cold
Though we stand separate and wakeful
Measuring death in miles between us
Where a city seems and memories
Sleep like a populace.
