I Am the Only Being Whose Doom<\/p>\n

\u00a0I am the only being whose doom
No tongue would ask, no eye would mourn;
I never caused a thought of gloom,
A smile of joy, since I was born.<\/p>\n

In secret pleasure, secret tears,
This changeful life has slipped away,
As friendless after eighteen years,
As lone as on my natal day.<\/p>\n

There have been times I cannot hide,
There have been times when this was drear,
When my sad soul forgot its pride
And longed for one to love me here.<\/p>\n

But those were in the early glow
Of feelings since subdued by care;
And they have died so long ago,
I hardly now believe they were.<\/p>\n

First melted off the hope of youth,
Then fancy\u2019s rainbow fast withdrew;
And then experience told me truth
In mortal bosoms never grew.<\/p>\n

\u2019Twas grief enough to think mankind
All hollow, servile, insincere;
But worse to trust to my own mind
And find the same corruption there.<\/p>\n
