Meeting... Christina Rossetti...
If we shall live, we live:
   If we shall die, we die:
If we live we shall meet again:
   But to-night, good-bye.
One word, let but one be heard-
   What, not one word?
If we sleep we shall wake again
   And see to-morrow's light:
If we wake, we shall meet again:
   But to-night, good-night.
   Good-night, my lost and found-
      Still not a sound?
If we live, we must part:
If we die, we part in pain:
   If we die, we shall part
   Only to meet again.
By those tears on either cheek,
   To-morrow you will speak.
   To meet, worth living for:
   Worth dying for, to meet.
   To meet, worth parting for:
   Bitter forgot in sweet.
   To meet, worth parting before,
   Never to part more.
