Except the Heaven had come so near by Emily Dickinson Lyrics

Genre: misc | Year: 1891

472

Except the Heaven had come so near
So seemed to choose My Door
The Distance would not haunt me so
I had not hoped — before

But just to hear the Grace depart
I never thought to see
Afflicts me with a Double loss
'Tis lost — and lost to me
