The Metropolitan¹ Tower

We walked together in the duskTo watch the tower grow dimly white, And saw it lift against the skyIts flower of amber² light.

You talked of half a hundred things,I kept each little word you said； And when at last the hour was full,I saw the light turn red.

You did not know the time had come,You did not see the sudden flower, Nor know that in my heart Love's birthWas reckoned from that hour.
