I'm Nobody by Emily Dickenson

It's been some time since I posted a poem.

But today I came across this poem at this site. And the poem somehow felt very close to my heart.


I’m Nobody! Who are you?
Are you — Nobody — Too?
Then there’s a pair of us!
Don’t tell! they’d advertise — you know!

How dreary — to be — Somebody!
How public — like a Frog –
To tell one’s name — the livelong June –
To an admiring Bog!
