Daybreak Poem by John Donne

Daybreak

Rating: 3.0


STAY, O sweet and do not rise!
The light that shines comes from thine eyes;
The day breaks not: it is my heart,
   Because that you and I must part.
   Stay! or else my joys will die
   And perish in their infancy.

I like this poem. The author sounds desperate in his attempt to get his lover to stay with him. It's pretty straight forward in what it is saying, but you can also find deeper meanings.

I do think the the poem is good, but the video is bugged which ruined it a bit for me.
