Poem by Emily Elizabeth Dickinson

Lost Faith

To lose one's faith surpasses
  The loss of an estate,
Because estates can be
  Replenished, -- faith cannot.

Inherited with life,
  Belief but once can be;
Annihilate a single clause,
  And Being's beggary.

2. I Have a King Who Does Not Speak
3. Disenchantment
4. Ventures
5. Friends
