Non omnis moriar

My life closed twice before its close;

by Emily Dickinson · Explore poems

  1. My life closed twice before its close;
  2. It yet remains to see
  3. If Immortality unveil
  4. A third event to me,
  5.  
  6. So huge, so hopeless to conceive,
  7. As these that twice befell.
  8. Parting is all we know of heaven,
  9. And all we need of hell.
