a word

by Emily Dickinson

A word is dead
When it is said,
Some say.

I say it just
Begins to live
That day.

  1. I agree with Emily. And I'm not familiar with this poem in spite of my love for her. Thanks!

hi! i'm Lena, but you can call me Lulu. i love Frida Kahlo, feminism, art, reading, kitties, and drinking tea. i love the film Amelie and i think that the tiny traveling gnome has stolen my heart. i want to own a bookshop and live above it one day. i get quite passionate about things. i tend to think too much. i'm kind of a hermit.
