The Night has a Thousand Eyes - Francis William Bourdillon


The Night has a Thousand Eyes by Francis William Bourdillon

 The night has a thousand eyes,
 And the day but one;
 Yet the light of the bright world dies
 With the dying sun.

 The mind has a thousand eyes,
 And the heart but one:
 Yet the light of a whole life dies
 When love is done.
