Primeval My Love For The Woman I Love

Walt Whitman

   PRIMEVAL my love for the woman I love,
   O bride! O wife! more resistless, more enduring than I can tell, the
         thought of you!
   Then separate, as disembodied, the purest born,
   The ethereal, the last athletic reality, my consolation,
   I ascend--I float in the regions of your love, O man,
   O sharer of my roving life.
