to one in paradise by edgar allen poe - richard mitchley lyrics
thou wast that all to me, love
for which my soul did pine—
a green isle in the sea, love
a fountain and a shrine
all wreathed with fairy fruits and flowers
and all the flowers were mine
ah, dream too bright to last!
ah, starry hope! that didst arise
but to be overcast!
a voice from out the future cries
“on! on!”—but o’er the past
(dim gulf!) my spirit hovering lies
mute, motionless, aghast!
for, alas! alas! with me
the light of life is o’er!
no more—no more—no more—
(such language holds the solemn sea
to the sands upon the shore)
shall bloom the thunder*blasted tree
or the stricken eagle soar!
and all my days are trances
and all my nightly dreams
are where thy grey eye glances
and where thy footstep gleams—
in what ethereal dances
by what eternal streams
