If I Can Stop
One Heart From Breaking
Poem by Emily Dickinson
If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.
Poem by Emily Dickinson
To live is so startling it leaves
little time for anything else.
- Emily Dickinson
My life closed twice before its' close-
It yet remains to see
If Immortality unveil
A third event to me.
So huge, so hopeless to concieve
As these that twice befell.
Parting is all we know of heaven,
And all we need of hell.
- Emily Dickinson
