Sara Teasdale: Alone

sarateasdale 04

Sara Teasdale

(1884 – 1933)

 

Alone

 

I am alone, in spite of love,

In spite of all I take and give–

In spite of all your tenderness,

Sometimes I am not glad to live.

 

I am alone, as though I stood

On the highest peak of the tired gray world,

About me only swirling snow,

Above me, endless space unfurled;

 

With earth hidden and heaven hidden,

And only my own spirit’s pride

To keep me from the peace of those

Who are not lonely, having died.
