  • Hyacinth

    I am in love with him
    To whom a hyacinth is dearer
    Than I shall ever be dear.

    On nights when the field-mice
    Are abroad, he cannot sleep.
    He hears their narrow teeth
    At the bulbs of his hyacinths.

    But the gnawing at my heart...
    He does not hear.

    by Edna St. Vincent Millay
