thomas hardy - the dead man walking - ghizela rowe lyrics
they hail me as one living
but don’t they know
that i have died of late years
untombed although?
i am but a shape that stands here
a pulseless mould
a pale past picture, screening
ashes gone cold
not at a minute’s warning
not in a loud hour
for me ceased time’s enchantments
in hall and bower
there was no tragic transit
no catch of breath
when silent seasons inched me
on to this death ….
— a troubadour*youth i rambled
with life for lyre
the beats of being raging
in me like fire
but when i practised eyeing
the goal of men
it iced me, and i perished
a little then
when passed my friend, my kinsfolk
through the last door
and left me standing bleakly
i died yet more;
and when my love’s heart kindled
in hate of me
wherefore i knew not, died i
one more degree
and if when i died fully
i cannot say
and changed into the corpse*thing
i am to*day
yet is it that, though whiling
the time somehow
in walking, talking, smiling
i live not now
