I wake up, and feel nothing

I walk among crowds and feel alone

I look in the mirror

and see a reflection



but the reflection is not me

blood red

pale skin moonlight,

draw me in, quench my thirsty,

coarsen veins,

let my body feel no pain

“If I Should Die,” Emily Dickinson



If I should die,

And you should live,

And time should gurgle on,

And morn should beam,

And noon should burn,

As it has usual done;

If birds should build as early,

And bees as bustling go,–

One might depart at option

From enterprise below!

‘Tis sweet to know that stocks will stand

When we with daisies lie,

That commerce will continue,

And trades as briskly fly.

It make the parting tranquil

And keeps the soul serene,

That gentlemen so sprightly

Conduct the pleasing scene!
