📚💚If
thou must love me... 💚📖
🌹💚If
thou must love me, let it be for nought
Except for love’s sake
only. Do not say,
“I love her for her smile—her look—her
way
Of speaking gently,—for a trick of thought
That falls in
well with mine, and certes brought
A sense of pleasant ease on
such a day”—
For these things in themselves, Belovèd, may
Be
changed, or change for thee—and love, so wrought,
May be
unwrought so. Neither love me for
Thine own dear pity’s wiping
my cheeks dry:
A creature might forget to weep, who bore
Thy
comfort long, and lose thy love thereby!
But love me for love’s
sake, that evermore
Thou mayst love on, through love’s eternity.💚💖💗💞💘💓💕💝
