because i could not stop for death

by emily dickinson

the carriage held but just ourselves
and immortality.

[2] we slowly drove, he knew no haste,
and i had put away

for his civility.

[3] we passed the school where children played,
their lessons scarcely done;
we passed the fields of gazing grain,
we passed the setting sun.

[4] we paused before a house that seemed

the cornice but a mound.

feels shorter than the day
i first surmised the horses' heads
were toward eternity.
