The Soul unto itself

Emily Dickinson

 Next Poem          

683

The Soul unto itself
Is an imperial friend—
Or the most agonizing Spy—
An Enemy—could send—

Secure against its own—
No treason it can fear—
Itself—its Sovereign—of itself
The Soul should stand in Awe—

    JUST READ "THE SOUL UNTO ITSELF". REALLY HIT ME WHEN IT SAID "THE SOUL SHOULD STAND IN AWE". SUCH A POWERFUL MESSAGE ABOUT SELF-RELIANCE AND INNER STRENGTH. WOW!
