_The dew falls and the stars fall, <br />The sun falls in the west, <br />But never more <br />Through the closed door, <br />Shall the one that I loved best <br />Return to me: <br />A salt tear is the sea, <br />All earth's air is a sigh, <br />But they never can mourn for me <br />With my heart's cry, <br />For the one that I loved best <br />Who caressed me with her eyes, <br />And every morning came to me, <br />With the beauty of sunrise, <br />Who was health and wealth and all, <br />Who never shall answer my call, <br />While the sun falls in the west, <br />The dew falls and the stars fall._<br /><br />Duncan Campbell Scott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-closed-door-2/
