"Fear" by E. Nesbit

If you were here,

Hopes, dreams, ambitions, faith would disappear,

Drowned in your eyes; and I should touch your hand,

Forgetting all that now I understand.

For you confuse my life with memories

Of unrememberable ecstasies

Which were, and are not, and can never be . . .

Ah! keep the whole earth between you and me.
   ambiciones      Esperanzas      fe      recuerdos      sueños   
"Temor"

Si tú estuvieras aquí,
, , , desaparecerían,
Ahogadas en tus ojos; y si tocara tu mano,
Olvidaría todo lo que ahora comprendo.
Porque tu confundes mi vida con
De inolvidables éxtasis
Que serían, y no son, y nunca podrán ser...
¡Ah! Mantén la tierra entera entre tú y yo.
