I Shall Not Care Poem by Sara Teasdale

I Shall Not Care

Rating: 3.6


When I am dead and over me bright April
Shakes out her rain-drenched hair,
Though you shall lean above me broken-hearted,
I shall not care.

I shall have peace, as leafy trees are peaceful
When rain bends down the bough;
And I shall be more silent and cold-hearted
Than you are now.

Silence can be more painful than harsh words, with words you at least know where the pain came from, and there is hope of a resolution. Silence taken to the grave, now that is pain without hope.
