Beauty's Contradiction
Beauty’s Contradiction
There
is a sweet sorrow that does not steal breath;
That does not make
hearts ache nor wish for swift death.
There
is a sad rapture that smiles, but not quite;
That is not bright
golden, but soft blue and white.
There
is a fair loneliness that does not ache;
That makes the heart
peaceful, nor does the soul break.
There
is a good weariness that is all calm;
That heartens the soul and
is a healing balm.
There
is a bright a pain that, though making me cry,
Is better than
bliss and so sweet I could die.
There
is a right reason for letting all go,
But it is so high and
wondrous we can’t know.
