IN A RAILROAD STATION
We stood in the shrill electric light,
Dumb and sick in the whirling din—
We who had all of love to say
And a single second to say it in.
"Good-by!" "Good-by!"—you turned to go,
I felt the train's slow heavy start,—
You thought to see me cry, but oh
My tears were hidden in my heart.
