Dickinson, Emily: THE HEART asks pleasure first

Portre of Dickinson, Emily
Dickinson, Emily

THE HEART asks pleasure first (English)


THE HEART asks pleasure first,
And then, excuse from pain;
And then, those little anodynes
That deaden suffering;

And then, to go to sleep;
And then, if it should be
The will of its Inquisitor,
The liberty to die.
