I Am Not Yours Sara Teasdale

SEERE103

Iamnotyours，notLostinyou.
Not lost， although Ilong to be，
    Lost as a candle lit at noon，
Lostasasnowfakeinthesea.
Youloveme，andIfindyoustill
Aspiritbeautifuland bright，
Yet I am I， who long to be
    LostasalightisIostinlight.
Oh， plunge me deep in love-put out
My senses， leave me deaf and blind，
Swept by the tempest of your love，
    Ataperinarushingwind.
