Elizabeth (Lizzie) Siddal: True Love

Elizabeth (Lizzie) Siddal

(1829-1862)

 

True Love

Farewell, Earl Richard,

Tender and brave;

Kneeling I kiss

The dust from thy grave.

 

Pray for me, Richard,

Lying alone

With hands pleading earnestly,

All in white stone.

 

Soon must I leave thee

This sweet summer tide;

That other is waiting

To claim his pale bride.

 

Soon I’ll return to thee

Hopeful and brave,

When the dead leaves

Blow over thy grave.

 

Then shall they find me

Close at thy head

Watching or fainting,

Sleeping or dead.
