More from Alfred, Lord Tennyson
‘Tis better to have loved and lost / Than never to have loved at all.
- “Flower in the Crannied Wall” (1869)
Dear as remember’d kisses after death,
And sweet as those by hopeless fancy feign’d
On lips that are for others; deep as love,
Deep as first love, and wild with all regret;
O Death in Life, the days that are no more.
