dirge without music - carolyn mccormick lyrics

Loading...

i am not resigned to the shutting away of loving hearts in the hard ground
so it is, and so it will be, for so it has been, time out of mind:
into the darkness they go, the wise and the lovely. crowned
with lilies and with laurel they go; but i am not resigned

lovers and thinkers, into the earth with you
be one with the dull, the indiscriminate dust
a fragment of what you felt, of what you knew
a formula, a phrase remains,—but the best is lost

the answers quick and keen, the honest look, the laughter, thе love,—
they are gonе. they are gone to feed the roses. elegant and curled
is the blossom. fragrant is the blossom. i know. but i do not approve
more precious was the light in your eyes than all the roses in the world

down, down, down into the darkness of the grave
gently they go, the beautiful, the tender, the kind;
quietly they go, the intelligent, the witty, the brave
i know. but i do not approve. and i am not resigned
