Poems by Emily Dickinson

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I could not prove the Years had feet --

... And Series that are done --I find my feet have further Goals -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I cried at Pity -- not at Pain --

... To look at, like a Toy --To sometimes hear "Rich people" buy ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I cross till I am weary

... The instant that we meet --They strive -- and yet delay -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I did not reach Thee

... Three rivers and the Hill are passed -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I envy Seas, whereon He rides

... Could not obtain for me --I envy Light -- that wakes Him -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I found the words to every thought

... As a Hand did try to chalk the SunTo Races -- nurtured in the Dark -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I gained it so

... Attempt by Strategy --I said I gained it -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I groped for him before I knew

... Which others taste and spurn and sneer -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I had a daily Bliss

... It grew as I pursuedTill when around a Height ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I had no Cause to be awake --

... And failed to wake them up --But called the others -- clear -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I had no time to Hate

... Ample I Could finish -- Enmity --Nor had I time to Love -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I had not minded -- Walls

... The other side the Block --I'd tunnel -- till my Groove ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I had some things that I called mine

... I had some things that I called mine -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I had the Glory -- that will do

... Deforming -- Dwindling -- Gulfing up -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I have never seen "Volcanoes"

... Features keep their place --If at length the smouldering anguish ...
