Sorrow by Edna St. Vincent Millay — Read

Explore "Sorrow" by Edna St. Vincent Millay on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.

Sorrow like a ceaseless rain / Beats upon my heart.

People twist and scream in pain,- / Dawn will find them still again;

This has neither wax nor wane, / Neither stop nor start.

People dress and go to town;

/ I sit in my chair.

All my thoughts are slow and brown: / Standing up or sitting down / Little matters, or what gown

/ Or what shoes I wear.
