Explore "My Heart" by Elizabeth Madox Roberts on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
My heart is beating up and down, / Is walking like some heavy feet. / My heart is going every day, / And I can hear it jump and beat.
At night before I go to sleep, / I feel it beating in my head; / I hear it jumping in my neck / And in the pillow on my bed.
And then I make some little words / To go along and say with it -- / "The men are sailing home from Troy, / And all the lamps are lit."
"The men are sailing home from Troy, / And all the lamps are lit."
