Poetry Days

We're getting closer to Valentine's, and I have been reading a lot of poetry lately.  You'll find that the ones that I post are very much symbolic of my crazy up-and-down relationship.  Thanks for riding the roller coaster with me.  I know I can be exhausting about it.

The Philosopher

And what are that, wanting you,
     I should be kept awake?
As many nights as there are days
     With weeping for your sake?

And what are you that, missing you,
     As many days as crawl
I should be listening to the wind
     And looking at the wall?

I know a man that’s a braver man
     And twenty men as kind,
And what are you, that you should be
     The one man on my mind?

Yet women’s ways are witless ways,
     As any sage will tell, --
And what am I, that I should love
     So wisely and so well?

- Edna St. Vincent Millay
