To -- by Allan Edgar Poe
I wake and sigh,
And sleep to dream till day
Of truth that gold can never buy -
Of the trifles that it may.
1829.

TO ---
I HEED not that my earthly lot
Hath-little of Earth in it
--That years of love have been forgot
In the hatred of a minute:
--I mourn not that the desolate
Are happier, sweet, than I,
But that you sorrow for my fate
Who am a passer-by.
1829.
