Here is a collection of my favourite poetry,

He likes poetry, I like him.

To His Mistress in Absence
Torquato Tasso (1544-95)

Far from thy dearest self, the scope
Of all my aims,
I waste in secret flames;
And only live because I hope.

O when will Fate restore
The joys, in whose bright fire
My expectation shall expire,
That I may live because I hope no more.
