“Love’s Been Good To Me”

~ Nina Simone

“I envy not in any moods/ The captive void of noble rage,/ The linnet born within a cage,/ That never knew the summer woods:/ I envy not the beast that takes/ His license in the field of time,/ Unfetter’d by the sense of crime,/ To whom a conscience never wakes;/ Nor, what may count itself as blessed,/ The heart that never plighted troth/ But stagnates in the weeds of sloth;/ Nor any want-begotten rest./ I hold it true, whate’er befall;/ I feel it, when I sorrow most;/ ’Tis better to have loved and lost/ Than never to have loved at all.”

                   Alfred, Lord Tennyson
