EBB

by: Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950)

      KNOW what my heart is like
      Since your love died:
      It is like a hollow ledge
      Holding a little pool
      Left there by the tide,
      A little tepid pool,
      Drying inward from the edge.

"Ebb" is reprinted from Second April. New York: Mitchell Kennerley, 1921.
