Elizabeth Eleanor Siddal Poems
- At Last
O mother, open the window wide
And let the daylight in;
The hills grow darker to my sight
And thoughts begin to swim. ... - Worn Out
Thy strong arms are around me, love
My head is on thy breast;
Low words of comfort come from thee
Yet my soul has no rest. ... - Dead Love
Oh never weep for love thatâ??s dead
Since love is seldom true
But changes his fashion from blue to red,
From brightest red to blue, ... - True Love
Farewell, Earl Richard,
Tender and brave;
Kneeling I kiss
The dust from thy grave. ... - Early Death
Oh grieve not with thy bitter tears
The life that passes fast;
The gates of heaven will open wide
And take me in at last. ...
