Because I could not stop for Death β He kindly stopped for me β The Carriage held but just Ourselves β And Immortality. We slowly drove β He knew no haste And I had put away My labor and my leisure too, For His Civility β We passed the School, where Children strove At Recess β in the Ring β We passed the Fields of Gazing Grain β We passed the Setting Sun β Or rather β He passed us β The Dews drew quivering and chill β For only Gossamer, my Gown β My Tippet β only Tulle β We paused before a House that seemed A Swelling of the Ground β The Roof was scarcely visible β The Cornice β in the Ground β Since then β βtis Centuries β and yet Feels shorter than the Day I first surmised the Horsesβ Heads Were towards Eternity Because I Could Not Stop for Death by Emily Dickinson
