Original artwork, not a still
Witch-Wife ‧ 1917
She loves me all that she can, And her ways to my ways resign; But she was not made for any man, And she never will be all mine.
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker says the beloved gives all the love she can and bends her habits toward theirs. Still, she was never made to belong to any man, and she will never be wholly the speaker's. The tone is tender and resigned, accepting an untameable partner.
