Poem by Edna St. Vincent Millay

Midnight Oil

Edna St. Vincent Millay - Midnight Oil  

Cut if you will, with Sleep’s dull knife,
Each day to half its length, my friend,—
The years that Time take off my life,
He’ll take from off the other end!

1. Grown-up
2. My Most Distinguished Guest And Learned Friend
3. Assault
4. Sweet Love, Sweet Thorn, When Lightly To My Heart
5. Night Is My Sister, And How Deep In Love
