I’m “Wife” – I’ve Finished That
By Emily Dickinson
I'm "wife" — I've finished that — That other state — I'm Czar — I'm "Woman" now — It's safer so — How odd the Girl's life looks Behind this soft Eclipse — I think that Earth feels so To folks in Heaven — now — This being comfort — then That other kind — was pain — But why compare? I'm "Wife"! Stop there!
