Emily Dickinson - I know that He exists
Work rating: Low

338

I know that He exists.
Somewhere—in Silence—
He has hid his rare life
From our gross eyes.

`Tis an instant`s play.
`Tis a fond Ambush—
Just to make Bliss
Earn her own surprise!

But—should the play
Prove piercing earnest—
Should the glee—glaze—
In Death`s—stiff—stare—

Would not the fun
Look too expensive!
Would not the jest—
Have crawled too far!
