I am not the same
I knew, be harsh and horrible to hear,—
I would I were alive again
My own bridal things,
There in the night I came,
The dust's grey fingers like a shielded light. Ye little seeds of hate! And beautiful the bare boughs
Spring is here; and so 'tis spring;—
Death, I say, my heart is bowed.

That should by now be grown,—
Your silent step must wake across the hall;
And mugs to melt the chill
I screamed, and—lo!—Infinity
And the next day I called; and on the third
I wish to see
So fair their raiment shone I looked in shame
Read from the back-page of a paper, say,
And the grass rise.
Of the conventional woe for its own wound!) That you are gone!—Just then it seemed to me
Came weariness, and all things other passed
This or that or what you will is all the same to me; There's little use in anything as far as I can see. Into some long-forgot, enchanted, strange,
Or that, and say, "My face is turned to you";
As stretcheth me apart,—Lord, I do fear
And her mouth on a valentine. That in my garden walked;
It was a magnificent triumph. In little wry-faced images of woe. Into my face a miracle
Upon the walls, and such sweet songs were sung
Through the cool eve of every day;
I, to-night, that till he came
About me thy serene, grave servants go;
Let the little birds sing;
Nor threat, nor easy vow
And fair,—and the long year remembers you. Of every slanting silver line,
I will mark which must be mine,
Each hour more deeply than the hour before,

There's little use in anything as far as I can see. Mindful of you the sodden earth in spring.
The room is full of you!—As I came in. Rolls, twinkling, from its grass-blade top. The world stands out on either side
And whether this or this will be the end";
Were over, and the morning was in sight—
Craved all in vain! In me all's sunk that leapt, and all that dreamed
O, let me sleep a while! Here she wrote, both verse and plays as well as embarking on a series of affairs with women as she explored the wider world and all it offered. And all the while for every grief,
O little words, how can you run so straight
I know, you held it up for me to see
Or raise my eyes and read with greater care
My fairest gardens stand
And the worlds gallop headlong to destruction! "Child," my father's voice replied,
A grave is such a quiet place. Across would drop in terror to the earth;
"All things thy fancy hath desired of me
My sorrow shall be dumb! And felt fierce fire
From the compassion that was I. To let her slippers show,
But needs must suck
Through which my shrinking sight did pass
If Heaven hold you or if earth transmute,
Held for them the gate.). I cried, but in strange places, steppe and firth

Author: Edna St. Vincent Millay. Amid sensations rendered negative
Not in this chamber only at my birth—. I said,—for Love was laggard, O, Love was slow to come,—
Save that it was the first. And you did so profane me when you crept
Until the world with answering mirth
A man was starving in Capri;
Before me like a scroll and read thereon
You laughed and brushed your flower against my lips. For rain it hath a friendly sound
But then, it does not matter,—and indeed
I lay and listened for his step and could not get to sleep;
When you were gone
And lay my finger on Thy heart! EMBED. And all thy days this word shall hold the same:
A strange door, ugly like a dwarf.—So near
Miles and miles above my head;
Love has gone and left me,—and the neighbors knock and borrow,
Each other room's dear personality. One of the most celebrated poets in American history, Millay is hailed as the twentieth century's most skilful sonnet writers who expertly married modern attitudes with traditional forms of expression.
Millay’s incandescent poetry continues to inspire today as broadly and deeply as during her lifetime. Each hour more deeply than the hour before. That keeps the world alive. And look my fill into the sky. Open as fields to thee on every hand. I breathed my soul back into me.
This book contains a classic collection of poetry written by Edna St. Vincent Millay, including one of the best-known American poems “Renascence". To one who's six feet underground;
All suffering mine, and mine its rod;
The harp that thou didst give me, and all day
Would tangle in the frantic hands of God
And he found me at my window with my big cloak on,
And when lights begin to show
Thy mists, that roll and rise! I knew her for a little ghost

I knew her by the broad white hat,
In trivial expression, that have been
In a gown as bright as flame

Plant things above your grave—(the common balm
At dawn from my damp garden
Here such a passion is
About the trees my arms I wound;
She married Eugen Jan Boissevain but on her wedding day she fell ill and he drove her to Manhattan for emergency surgery. And now I go. Again my hated tasks, but I am through
An empty room, cobwebbed and comfortless.
Need I arise to-morrow and renew
And all at once things seemed so small
Held by a neighbor in a subway train,
Back to where I'd started from;
Across the page, beneath the weight you bear? And yet I did not think of that
The creaking of the tented sky,
No_Favorite. Love has gone and left me and the days are all alike; The Little Ghost
And, through and over everything,
To sit all day in the sunshine like a weed
If I had known—
And all the flowers that in the springtime grow,
I wonder if you knew. Over these things I could not see;
I bent above your growing
Neither stop nor start. No utterance of my immaterial voice. I have not seen, through alien grief and mirth;
To have about the house when I was grown

Beholds, self-conjured, in the empty air. Of a bird's wings too high in air to view,—
Of sadness in her face. And to-day
No mist nor mold nor mildew
Body and soul, you into earth again;
That we could die apart. Love has gone and left me and the days are all alike; All the dog-wood blossoms are underneath the tree! And all at once the heavy night
Even, if it was white or pink; for then

I sit in idleness, while to and fro
How easily could God, if He so willed,
Had opened at my touch, and I had stepped
Better a perilous journey overseas

Here is no treasure hid,
So that in truth I seem already quite
Edna achieved significant fame when she won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1923 for 'The Ballad of the Harp-Weaver'. The ensuing uproar brought publicity and the offer of funding for her education at Vassar College. There, there it dangles,—where's the little truth

Upon my lowly, thatched roof,
World, World, I cannot get thee close enough! Ah, Life, I would have been a pleasant thing
Beating against my lips I heard;
The look of a scared thing

That all about me swirled the dust. All the dog-wood blossoms are underneath the tree! Perhaps that chair, when you arose and passed
I almost laughed to think
Mindful of you the sodden earth in spring,
I said,—for Love was laggard, O, Love was slow to come,—, Time does not bring relief; you all have lied. That tearing you apart would tear the thread
Set back the world a little turn or two!
