Edna St. Vincent Millay Quotes

14. Indifference
I SAID, - For Love Was Laggard, O, Love Was Slow To Come,
"I'll Hear His Step And Know His Step When I Am Warm In Bed;
But I'll Never Leave My Pillow, Though There Be Some
As Would Let Him In - And Take Him In With Tears!" I Said.
I Lay, - For Love Was Laggard, O, He Came Not Until Dawn, - 5
I Lay And Listened For His Step And Could Not Get To Sleep;
And He Found Me At My Window With My Big Cloak On,
All Sorry With The Tears Some Folks Might Weep!
