Emily Dickinson (1830–86). Complete Poems. 1924. |
Part One: Life XIX |
PAIN has an element of blank; | |
It cannot recollect | |
When it began, or if there were | |
A day when it was not. | |
It has no future but itself, | 5 |
Its infinite realms contain | |
Its past, enlightened to perceive | |
New periods of pain. |
