slumber

What use is it to slumber here;
Though the heart be sad and weary?
What use is it to slumber here
Though the day rise dark and dreary?

For that mist may break when the sun is high
And this soul forget its sorrow
And the rose ray of the closing day
May promise a brighter tomorrow.

~ Emily Bronte
