Poem of the day-160: A Deep-Sworn Vow by W. B. Yeats

A Deep-Sworn Vow
by W. B. Yeats, 1865 - 1939

Others because you did not keep
That deep-sworn vow have been friends of mine;
Yet always when I look death in the face,
When I clamber to the heights of sleep,
Or when I grow excited with wine,
Suddenly I meet your face.
