Loneliness

Rating: 3.2


Set are the Pleiades; the Moon is down
And midnight dark on high.
The hours, the hours, drift by,
And here I lie,
Alone

As usual Sappho's poems are oft short versed and oft a narrative. This poem is short but loveliest in deepest melancholic appearance. TOP Marks for this amazing poem. Loneliness is a sublimest topic
