Again-his Voice Is At The Door
Emily Dickinson
663 Again—his voice is at the door— I feel the old Degree— I hear him ask the servant For such an one—as me— I take a flower—as I go— My face to justify— He never saw me—in this life— I might surprise his eye! I cross the Hall with mingled steps— I—silent—pass the door— I look on all this world contains— Just his face—nothing more! We talk in careless—and it toss— A kind of plummet strain— Each—sounding—shyly— Just—how—deep— The other’s one—had been— We walk—I leave my Dog—at home— A tender—thoughtful Moon— Goes with us—just a little way— And—then—we are alone— Alone—if Angels are “alone”— First time they try the sky! Alone—if those “veiled faces”—be— We cannot count—on High! I’d give—to live that hour—again— The purple—in my Vein— But He must count the drops—himself— My price for every stain!
