A poem by Emily Dickinson

To Lose Thee, Sweeter Than To Gain

________________________________________________
Title:     To Lose Thee, Sweeter Than To Gain
Author: Emily Dickinson [More Titles by Dickinson]

To lose thee, sweeter than to gain
All other hearts I knew.
'T is true the drought is destitute,
But then I had the dew!

The Caspian has its realms of sand,
Its other realm of sea;
Without the sterile perquisite
No Caspian could be.
