The Mystery of Pain: Anna Parkina & Emily Dickinson

8 November 2009

Author : jeanne-salome-rochat

Pain has an element of blank;
It cannot recollect
When it began, or if there were
A day when it was not.

It has no future but itself,
Its infinite realms contain
Its past, enlightened to perceive
New periods of pain.
