Sara Teasdale - A Prayer

Until I lose my soul and lie <br /> Blind to the beauty of the earth, <br />Deaf though shouting wind goes by, <br /> Dumb in a storm of mirth; <br /> <br />Until my heart is quenched at length <br /> And I have left the land of men, <br />Oh, let me love with all my strength <br /> Careless if I am loved again.<br /><br />Sara Teasdale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-prayer-2/
