I Ment To Find Her When I Came; Poem by Emily Dickinson

I Ment To Find Her When I Came;

Rating: 5.0


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.
