Unknown - Dante Gabriel Rossetti












Unknown
Dante Gabriel Rossetti



I have been here before
But when and how I cannot tell
I know the grass beyond the door
The sweet, keen smell, the sighing sound
The lights around the shore.

And you have been mine before
How long ago I may not know
Has this been thus before?
And shall not thus time's eddying flight
Still with our lives restore
In death's despite
And day and night
Yield one delight
Once more?
