You see I cannot see -- your lifetime

Emily Dickinson·1830–1886
Lines:15
You see I cannot see -- your lifetime --I must guess --How many times it ache for me -- today -- Confess --How many times for my far sakeThe brave eyes film --But I guess guessing hurts --Mine -- got so dim! Too vague -- the face --My own -- so patient -- covers --Too far -- the strength --My timidness enfolds --Haunting the Heart --Like her translated faces --Teasing the want --It -- only -- can suffice!
