More than the Grave is closed to me

by Emily Dickinson


Original Language English

More than the Grave is closed to me --
The Grave and that Eternity
To which the Grave adheres --
I cling to nowhere till I fall --
The Crash of nothing, yet of all --
How similar appears --

-- from The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson, Edited by Thomas H. Johnson
