Rebel Verses — Is it Finished

Is it finished?

Well--Is it finished, Is the long day-dream done?

The battle lost, and won?

Has love at length diminished And night begun?

Do you pass to another?

Yet still I hold Devotion all untold;

Although you mate a brother And leave me cold.

My heart beats but for thee And every thought is thine, As flowers to the sun incline;

For once thou lovedst me And all was mine.

Though destiny may banish, My heart is still the same;

And thine is all my fame;

Although thy love may vanish, True burns my flame.

And, thou mayst know That shouldst thou call to me, Where-ever I may be, Like arrow from its bow Straight I will fly to thee.
