I Meant To Find Her When I Came

Title:     I Meant To Find Her When I Came
Author: Emily Dickinson [More Titles by Dickinson]

I meant to find her when I came;
Death had the same design;
But the success was his, it seems,
And the discomfit mine.

I meant to tell her how I longed
For just this single time;
But Death had told her so the first,
And she had hearkened him.

To wander now is my abode;
To rest, -- to rest would be
A privilege of hurricane
To memory and me.

[The end]
Emily Dickinson's poem: I Meant To Find Her When I Came
