Escape is such a thankful Word
Escape is such a
thankful Word
I often in the
Night
Consider it unto
myself
No spectacle in
sight
Escape -- it is
the Basket
In which the
Heart is caught
When down some
awful Battlement
The rest of Life
is dropt
'Tis not to sight
the savior
It is to be the
saved
And that is why I
lay my Head
Upon this trusty
word.
by
Emily Dickinson
