Being Young and Green, I said in love's despite: <br />Never in the world will I to living wight <br />Give over, air my mind <br />To anyone, <br />Hang out its ancient secrets in the strong wind <br />To be shredded and faded— <br /> <br />Oh, me, invaded <br />And sacked by the wind and the sun!<br /><br />Edna St. Vincent Millay<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/being-young-and-green/
