Cloudy day
If thou must love me, let it be for nought
Except for love's sake only.
Do not say 'I love her for her smile, her look, her way
Of speaking gently, for a trick of thought
That falls in well with mine, and certes brought
A sense of ease on such a day'
For these things in themselves, Beloved, may
Be changed, or change for thee, and love, so wrought,
May be unwrought so.
-E.B. Browning.
