Poems (Mary Coleridge)/Poem 229
CCXXIX
Not as I am thou art—and yet thou art.
To touch thy hand, I thought was touching thee.
I looked into thine eyes, the soul to see.
I felt thee in the beating of thy heart.
Hands, eyes, and heart thou hast not—yet thou art.
To touch thy hand, I thought was touching thee.
I looked into thine eyes, the soul to see.
I felt thee in the beating of thy heart.
Hands, eyes, and heart thou hast not—yet thou art.
