By John Keats - When I have fears (Danica Oronos) lyrics

When I have fears that I may cease to be Before my pen has gleaned my teeming brain, Before high-piled books, in charact'ry Hold like rich garners the full-ripen'd grain; When I behold, upon the night's starr'd face, Huge cloudy symbols of a high romance, And think that I may never live to trace Their shadows, with the magic hand of chance; And when I feel, fair creature of an hour! That I shall never look upon thee more, Never have relish in the faery power Of unreflecting love! - then on the shore of the wide world I stand alone, and think, Till Love and Fame to nothingness do sink.
