They Say That 'Time Assuages'

Title:     They Say That 'Time Assuages'
Author: Emily Dickinson [More Titles by Dickinson]

They say that 'time assuages,' --
Time never did assuage;
An actual suffering strengthens,
As sinews do, with age.

Time is a test of trouble,
But not a remedy.
If such it prove, it prove too
There was no malady.

[The end]
Emily Dickinson's poem: They Say That 'time Assuages,'
