A poem by Emily Dickinson

Apocalypse

________________________________________________
Title:     Apocalypse
Author: Emily Dickinson [More Titles by Dickinson]

I'm wife; I've finished that,
That other state;
I'm Czar, I'm woman now:
It's safer so.

How odd the girl's life looks
Behind this soft eclipse!
I think that earth seems so
To those in heaven now.

This being comfort, then
That other kind was pain;
But why compare?
I'm wife! stop there!






[The end]
Emily Dickinson's poem: Apocalypse
