Love poems

Music, When Soft Voices Die

by Percy Bysshe Shelleyk

Music, when soft voices die,
Vibrates in the memory --
Odours, when sweet violets sicken,
Live within the sense they quicken

.

Rose leaves, when the rose is dead,
Are heap'd for the beloved's bed;
And so thy thoughts when thou are gone,
Love itself shall slumber on.

  • 'I have been astonished that men could die martyrs for their religion - I have shudder'd at it. I shudder no more.
    I could be martyr'd for my religion. Love is my religion.
    And I could die for that. I could die for you.'
    ~ John Keats
