If you should tire of loving me

By Margaret Widdemer

1884-1978


If you should tire of loving me
         Some one of our far days,
Oh, never start to hide your heart
         Or cover thought with praise.

For every word you would not say
         Be sure my heart has heard,
So go from me all silently
         Without a kiss or word;

For God must give you happiness,
         And Oh, it may befall
In listening long to Heaven-song
         I may not care at all!
