One Room in My Heart

One room in my heart shall be closed, I said; One chamber at least in my soul shall be secret and locked! I shall hold it my holy of holies, and no one shall know it! But you, calm woman predestined, with casual hands, You came with this trivial key, And ward by obdurate ward the surrendering lock fell back, And disdainfully now you wander and brood and wait In this room that I thought was my own!

Arthur Stringer

Learn by heart: tap a gap

One room in my heart shall be , I said;
One at least in my soul shall be secret and locked!
