[創作] How far can I keep my wandering thought

[amadeus1223 (L'amor Celeste)]

How far can I keep my wandering thought,
From thy face, thy eyes and thy tender smile?
And how long, in self-cheated peace of nought
Can I still perform the sad play of guile?
I havd my heart filled with secular things
In gaudy daylight to fend my dark wish,
Which, yet, in night with sugared dreams up springs
That in sleep I see will for sure perish,
When the sharp beam of dawn rips my eyelids.
I hate dreams! Devious fancy! False vision!
That makes true my wish in slumber, and bids
Me taste the gall of soon disillusion.
  Wouldst thou ruin my night also, o my Beloved,
  Since thou hadst my day's joy for good removed?

--
Rage, rage against the dying of the light!

                                        ---Dylan Thomas(1914-1953)
