+Two separate divided silences,
+Which, brought together, would find loving voice;
+Two glances which together would rejoice
+In love, now lost like stars beyond dark trees;
+Two hands apart whose touch alone gives ease;
+Two bosoms which, heart-shrined with mutual flame,
+Would, meeting in one clasp, be made the same;
+Two souls, the shores wave-mocked of sundering seas: —
+
+Such are we now. Ah! may our hope forecast
+Indeed one hour again, when on this stream
+Of darkened love once more the light shall gleam? —
+An hour how slow to come, how quickly past, —
+Which beams and fades, and only leaves at last,
+Faint as shed flowers, the attenuated dream.
