						After Love by Sara Teasdale 
						
						There is no magic any more,  We meet as other people do, You work no miracle for me  Nor I for you.
  You were the wind and I the sea --  There is no splendor any more, I have grown listless as the pool  Beside the shore.
  But though the pool is safe from storm  And from the tide has found surcease, It grows more bitter than the sea,  For all its peace.
