If I could have your arms tonight- <br />But half the world and the broken sea <br />Lie between you and me. <br /> <br />The autumn rain reverberates in the courtyard, <br />Beating all night against the barren stone, <br />The sound of useless rain in the desolate courtyard <br />Makes me more alone. <br /> <br />If you were here, if you were only here- <br />My blood cries out to you all night in vain <br />As sleepless as the rain.<br /><br />Sara Teasdale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sleepless/
