Now you know the heart that beats
Behind the shield that covers
And I don’t know just what to do
We can no longer be lovers

A shield from foes and lovers,
And no one knows the heart that beats
Beneath the shield that covers
Mary Elizabeth Coleridge

no one knows the heart that beats, no one but you
