Alone<br /> by Edgar Allen Poe<br /> <br /> From childhood&rsquo;s hour I have not been<br /> As others were&mdash;I have not seen<br /> As others saw&mdash;I could not bring<br /> My passions from a common spring&mdash;<br /> From the same source I have not taken<br /> My sorrow&mdash;I could not awaken<br /> My heart to joy at the same tone&mdash;<br /> And all I lov&rsquo;d&mdash;I lov&rsquo;d alone&mdash;<br /> Then&mdash;in my childhood&mdash;in the dawn<br /> Of a most stormy life&mdash;was drawn<br /> From ev&rsquo;ry depth of good and ill<br /> The mystery which binds me still&mdash;<br /> From the torrent, or the fountain&mdash;<br /> From the red cliff of the mountain&mdash;<br /> From the sun that &rsquo;round me roll&rsquo;d<br /> In its autumn tint of gold&mdash;<br /> From the lightning in the sky<br /> As it pass&rsquo;d me flying by&mdash;<br /> From the thunder, and the storm&mdash;<br /> And the cloud that took the form<br /> (When the rest of Heaven was blue)<br /> Of a demon in my view&mdash;
