Shall we, too, rise forgetful from our sleep,
And shall my soul that lies within your hand
Remember nothing, as the blowing sand
Forgets the palm where long blue shadows creep
When winds along the darkened desert sweep?
Or would it still remember, tho’ it spanned
A thousand heavens, while the planets fanned
The vacant ether with their voices deep?
Soul of my [...]

Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow-
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream [...]

Sleep warm and soft in the arms of your mother,
Dreaming of [...]

They say my future follows on your past,
Commanded not to love you by the wise:

would ever grow, would wane, would never die,
and with the night, you’d [...]

Don’t think
that because you haven’t heard from me

Thirsty, hungry, seldom stopping to rest.
Silence is the sleep that nourishes wisdom.

If one dream should fall and break into a thousand pieces,
never be afraid to pick one of those pieces up and begin again.
