My heart went fluttering with fear <br />Lest you should go, and leave me here <br />To beat my breast and rock my head <br />And stretch me sleepless on my bed. <br />Ah, clear they see and true they say <br />That one shall weep, and one shall stray <br />For such is Love's unvarying law.... <br />I never thought, I never saw <br />That I should be the first to go; <br />How pleasant that it happened so!<br /><br />Dorothy Parker<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/surprise/
