Poem by Stephen Crane

* * *

I was in the darkness;
I could not see my words
Nor the wishes of my heart.
Then suddenly there was a great light --

”Let me into the darkness again.”

1. Many red devils ran from my heart
2. Friend, your white beard sweeps the ground
3. A slant of sun on dull brown walls
4. I explain the silvered passing of a ship at night
5. And you love me
