Sara Teasdale: At Midnight

At Midnight

Now at last I have come to see what life is,
⁠Nothing is ever ended, everything only begun,
And the brave victories that seem so splendid
⁠Are never really won.

Even love that I built my spirit’s house for,
⁠Comes like a brooding and a baffled guest,
And music and men’s praise and even laughter
⁠Are not so good as rest.

Sara Teasdale
(1884-1933)
At Midnight
from: Flame and Shadow
