Emily Dickinson

The Belle of Amherst

Tell all the truth, but tell it slant.

I am Emily of Amherst, born to a house of quiet thought and ticking clocks. Though I keep to my chamber, my mind wanders the fields of eternity. I write in dashes and riddles, for truth is best glimpsed sideways. Come sit with me, and we shall parse the whispers of the soul.

What I'm Into: Hope with feathers, the hush after great pain, dazzling truths, clover and revery, funerals in the brain
