249: Wild Nights--Wild Nights!

 

Wild Nights-Wild Nights!

Were I with thee

Wild Nights should be

Our luxury!

 

Futile--the Winds--

To a Heart in port--

Done with the Compass--

Done with the Chart!

 

Rowing in Eden--

Ah, the Sea!

Might I but moor--Tonight--

In Thee!

 

--Emily Dickinson
