Symptoms of Love


 
















Love is a universal migraine,
A bright stain on the vision
Blotting out reason.

Symptoms of true love
Are leanness, jealousy,
Laggered dawns;

Are omens and nightmares
Listening for a knock;
Waiting for signs:

For a touch of his fingers
In a darkened room,
For a searching look.

Take courage, lover!
Could you endure such grief
At any hand but his?
