American Literature – American Poetry – Emily Dickinson
< < < I many times thought peace had come
I never lost as much but twice > > >

I meant to find her when I came

I meant to find her when I came;

   Death had the same design;

But the success was his, it seems,

   And the discomfit mine.

I meant to tell her how I longed

   For just this single time;

But Death had told her so the first,

   And she had hearkened him.

To wander now is my abode;

   To rest, — to rest would be

A privilege of hurricane

   To memory and me.

I never lost as much but twice > > >
