LINES TO A FRIEND.

You seem to think because smile,
That sorrow turks not near;
You know Lot of the abiding pain
That fills my heart with fear;
Naught tells thee of the hidden grief
That lies within my breast,
Deep, dark and dense its shadows fall
Where once dwelt peaceful rest.
Like autumn leaves, all brown and sere,
Faith, hope and trust lie dead,
Crushed meath the weight of sorrows pace
That gives no echoing tread;
Cherries and desolate my life,
As hills deep-clad with snow,
Ger which the winter winds sad wall
is heard in murmurings drear and low.
Could you but read between the lines
And see the sorrow written there,
That tells of anguish, ceaseless woe,
That shrouds my life with care,
Could know the sorrowful unrest,
That yoiceless grief imparts.
You then might know how oft a smile
Conceals breaking heart
Dark shadows fall athwart my path
Wherever my footsteps stray,
While happiness eludes my grasp,
And dssolate seems the way;
Toil-worn and weary, yet onward still
! strive TO reach the goal
Where peace and joy and heavenly rest
Shall greet the weary soul.
