Some of my fav stanzas from the set of love poems:
Of all the souls that stand create
I have elected one
When sense from spirit flies away,
And subterfuge is done;
——
Heart, we will forget him!
You and I, tonight!
You may forget the warmth he gave,
I will forget the light.
——
We outgrow love like other things
And put in the drawer,
Till it an antique fashion shows
Like costumes grandsires wore.

And put in the drawer,
Till it an antique fashion shows
