If Not, Winter: Fragments of Sappho by Sappho
5.0
when Sappho said I would rather see her lovely step / and the motion of light on her face / than chariots of Lydians or ranks / of footsoldiers in arms. and you burn me and you came and I was crazy for you / and you cooled my mind that burned with longing and I don’t know what to do / two states of mind in me and I simply want to be dead. and O beautiful O graceful one and may you sleep on the breast of your delicate friend and but me you have forgotten / or you love some man more than me and my darling one
