Revulsion

By Laurence Alma-Tadema

My heart is weary of Love and Hate:

Too sick of its Love to love you still,

Too sick of its Hate to hate you yet —

My heart is weary and would forget.

O give me nothing!‘ Tis far too late:

Your much were little my thirst to fill,

Your little were scorn of Faith so deep —

O give me nothing!— and let me sleep.
