Time Does Not Bring Relief 

Time does not bring relief; you all have lied

 Who told me time would ease me of my pain!

 I miss him in the weeping of the rain; I want him at the shrinking of the tide;

 The old snows melt from every mountain-side

 And last year's leaves are smoke in every lane;

 But last year's bitter loving must remain

 Heaped on my heart, and my old thoughts abide.

 There are a hundred places where I fear

 To go - so with his memory they brim.

 And entering with relief some quiet place

 Where never fell his foot or shone his face

 I say, 'There is no memory of him here!'

 And so stand stricken, so remembering him. 

 

Edna St Vincent Millay (1892 -1950)
