After Parting

Oh, I have sown my love so wide
That he will find it everywhere;
It will awake him in the night,
It will enfold him in the air.

I set my shadow in his sight
And I have winged it with desire,
That it may be a cloud by day,
And in the night a shaft of fire.

Yes, she has cast her net and I am ensnared,
By day her cloud surrounds me
And, by night I am sleep impaired!
