Glad you love Emily Dickinson. I think you read a bit much into my statement, which made no actual criticism of Dickinson, but merely points out how unlikely it is to have your work “discovered” if you don’t publish.

Find a way to publish your poems. Sooner or later you have to send your babies out into the world to find their way. Emily Dickinson was a fluke. Most people who don’t publish while they’re alive will never be seen or heard of — no matter how great their poems.

Yes, Emily Dickinson only gained her fame after her death, but she did try to get her poems published when she sent them to Thomas Wentworth Higginson. Higginson refrained from publishing her poems because he thought they were too shocking and avant garde for the general public.

Maybe I’m just a defensive fan. I love Emily Dickinson.

IMPOSSIBLE LOVE.

I have being hearing your voice in my head,
I picture you holding my hand,
Then you whisper to my ears,
I look up and stare straight in to your eyes,
I see the sun,
It’s shining so bright,
I start feeling the heat,
My heart is near to bounce out,
Am afraid something very strong is building inside,
I have to run for my life,
This can’t happen,
We are not meant to be,
This is impossible,
We have to let go,
It’s wrong,
It hurts so much,
This love is making me weak,
The way I feel,
I know this love is so real,
We wasn’t suppose to fall in love,
Of all people, why did it have to be you?
I didn’t want to fall in love,
I didn’t want you in my life,
Now I regret,
That we met,
But it’s done,
We are in love,
We know its wrong,
You belong to another person,
And we can’t be together,
Our love is impossible,

NOW HERE THE LASTEST

A PIECE OF MY HEART

You are my friend,

The one I want to always hold,

Through the good times,

Through the bad times,

We walk together,

Me and you, no other,

You are my confident,

I tell you all my secrets,

Attentively you open your ears,

Everything I utter you want to hear,

You always held me up,

For me you always stood up,

When I fall down,

You always pick me up,

Whenever I need a hand,

You stretch your hand I hold,

When life I cannot bear,

You are there to wipe my tears,

You are my comfort zone,

You are juts like the ice cream cone,

I can’t make it without you,

You are my hero,

Every moment we spent,

It all counts,

Thank you for everything you have done,

You always want to see me happy,

With you I will never be lonely,

Whenever I am in sorrow,

You always make me smile,

Remember the silly jokes you told me?

Those ones I will never forget,

They brought me happiness,

They are the best memories,

The best I ever had,

Even though I may not shout it loud,

But you are always missed,

And I will never be ashamed,

To call you my best friend,

My actions whenever am wrong you correct,

Cause you understand am not perfect,

Only with you I can be myself,

You are my hiding shelf,

You accept me for who I am,

As long as my life goes on,

You will always be my number one,

I will never break my promise,

For you I will always compromise,

And forever we will be friends.

That a vow I will never break,

Every breath I take,

Every step i make,

In you I know I will find the strength.
