George Sterling - Kindred lyrics

Musing, between the sunset and the dark, As Twilight in unhesitating hands Bore from the faint horizon's underlands, Silvern and cold, the moon's phantasmal ark, I heard the sea, and far away could mark Where that unalterable wave expands In sevenfold sapphire from the mournful sands, And saw beyond the deep a vibrant spark. There sank the sun Arcturus, and I thought: Star, by an ocean on a world of thine, May not a being, born like me to die, Confront a little the eternal Naught And watch our isolated sun decline - Sad for his evanescence, even as I?
