Pourtant, si tu m\u2019aimais ! si cette raillerie
\nAvait jet\u00e9 racine et germ\u00e9 sourdement ;
\nSi, moi qui me jouais, si tu m\u2019avais, Marie,
\nDe la bouche et du c\u0153ur appel\u00e9 ton amant !<\/p>\n
Si je t\u2019avais tromp\u00e9e, et si j\u2019avais su rendre
\nSi puissant et si doux mon sourire moqueur.
\nQue ton \u00e2me cr\u00e9dule ait pu se laisser prendre
\nAux semblants d\u2019un amour qui n\u2019est point dans mon c\u0153ur,<\/p>\n
Malheur \u00e0 tous les deux ! T\u00f4t ou tard l\u2019imposture
\nRapportera ses fruits d\u2019angoisse et de douleur ;
\nEt toi, qui n\u2019a rien fait, toi, pauvre cr\u00e9ature,
\nTu prendras comme moi ta moiti\u00e9 du malheur.<\/p>\n
Et si j\u2019avais dit vrai ; cependant, quand j\u2019y songe\u2026
\n\u00d4 femme ! vois un peu ce que c\u2019est que de nous !
\nPour peu que cette voix, qui riait du mensonge.
\nE\u00fbt de torrents d\u2019amour inond\u00e9 tes genoux !<\/p>\n
Comme un berceau d\u2019enfant \u00e0 la branche fleurie,
\nSi j\u2019avais suspendu mon bonheur \u00e0 tes pas,
\nMalheur, encor malheur ! car cette fois, Marie,
\nH\u00e9las ! ce serait toi qui ne m\u2019aimerais pas !<\/p>\n
\u00c9tait-ce donc ta loi, pitoyable nature.
\nDe reculer toujours le but que j\u2019entrevois,
\nEt de ne mettre au c\u0153ur de chaque cr\u00e9ature
\nQu\u2019un d\u00e9sir sans espoir, et qu\u2019un \u00e9cho sans voix.<\/p>\n
\u00d4 mal\u00e9diction ! \u00e9tait-ce ton envie
\nDe n\u2019accomplir jamais qu\u2019une part du souhait,
\nEt le seul avenir est-il pour cette vie,
\nDe ha\u00efr qui nous aime, ou d\u2019aimer qui nous hait.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"default","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"annee":[534],"poems-book":[622],"poemes-theme":[171,360,376],"poete":[649],"class_list":["post-14199","poemes","type-poemes","status-publish","hentry","annee-534","poems-book-mes-heures-perdues","poemes-theme-amour","poemes-theme-haine","poemes-theme-malheur","poete-felix-arvers"],"yoast_head":"\n
