Because your voice was at my side <br />I gave him pain, <br />Because within my hand I held <br />Your hand again. <br /> <br />There is no word nor any sign <br />Can make amend -- - <br />He is a stranger to me now <br />Who was my friend.<br /><br />James Joyce<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/because-your-voice-was-at-my-side/
