Pity lyrics

by

Sara Teasdale


THEY never saw my lover's face,
    They only know our love was brief,
Wearing awhile a windy grace
    And passing like an autumn leaf.

They wonder why I do not weep,
    They think it strange that I can sing,
They say, "Her love was scarcely deep
    Since it has left so slight a sting."

They never saw my love, nor knew
    That in my heart's most secret place
I pity them as angels do

Men who have never seen God's face.
