The memory of love

Published:
1.4K Views

Description

Created Adobe Illustrator
Inspired by the poetic work "Roses & Rue" by Oscar Wild.

...
On your hand as it waved adieu
There were veins of blue;
In your voice as it said good-bye
Was a petulant cry,

You have only wasted your life.'
(Ah, that was the knife!)
When I rushed through the garden gate
It was all too late.

Could we live it over again,
Were it worth the pain,
Could the passionate past that is fled
Call back its dead!

Well, if my heart must break,
Dear love, for your sake,
It will break in music, I know,
Poets' hearts break so.

But strange that I was not told
That the brain can hold
In a tiny ivory cell
God's heaven and hell.....
