Insufficiency by Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Insufficiency Annotated

I.

There is no one beside thee and no one above thee,
&nbspThou standest alone as the nightingale sings!
&nbspAnd my words that would praise thee are impotent things,
For none can express thee though all should approve thee.
&nbspI love thee so, Dear, that I only can love thee.

II.

Say, what can I do for thee? weary thee, grieve thee?
&nbspLean on thy shoulder, new burdens to add?
&nbspWeep my tears over thee, making thee sad?
Oh, hold me not—love me not! let me retrieve thee.
&nbspI love thee so, Dear, that I only can leave thee.
