Grey rocks, and greyer sea, <br /> And surf along the shore -- <br />And in my heart a name <br /> My lips shall speak no more. <br /> <br />The high and lonely hills <br /> Endure the darkening year -- <br />And in my heart endure <br /> A memory and a tear. <br /> <br />Across the tide a sail <br /> That tosses, and is gone -- <br />And in my heart the kiss <br /> That longing dreams upon. <br /> <br />Grey rocks, and greyer sea, <br /> And surf along the shore -- <br />And in my heart the face <br /> That I shall see no more.<br /><br />Sir Charles George Douglas Roberts<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/grey-rocks-and-greyer-sea/
