A poem by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Proximity

________________________________________________
Title:     Proximity
Author: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe [More Titles by Goethe]

I KNOW not, wherefore, dearest love,

Thou often art so strange and coy

When 'mongst man's busy haunts we move,

Thy coldness puts to flight my joy.

But soon as night and silence round us reign,

I know thee by thy kisses sweet again!


1789.
