There is a finished feeling

Emily Dickinson

There is a finished feeling
Experienced at Graves—
A leisure of the Future—
A Wilderness of Size.

By Death's bold Exhibition
Preciser what we are
And the Eternal function
Enabled to infer.

    Just stumble upon this Emily Dickinson poem and wow, it's so powerful! This poem makes us realize how death can allow us to see our lives in a clearer way and infer what comes after. Such a thought provoking piece!
