AS IF A PHANTOM CARESS'D ME

 

 

 

 

As if a phantom caress'd me

I thought I was not alone walking here by the shore;

But the one I thought was with me as now I walk by the shore,

the one I loved that caress'd me,

As I lean and look through the glimmering light, that one has

utterly disappear'd,

And those appear that are hateful to me and mock me.
