2 by Emily Dickinson
You left me, sweet, two legacies,
—A legacy of love
A Heavenly Father would content,
Had He the offer of;
You left me boundaries of pain
Capacious as the sea,
Between eternity and time,
Your consciousness and me.

1. The theme is that love can be lost and getting into it you have to realize there are two paths that can be taken. The path that is great and loving. Or the path that is sad and filled with broken hearts.
2. She compares love to a tales of two legacies. The two legacies with there own seperate prophetizations expressing good and bad.
3. Love is like a fortune cookie. On the outside it always looks good but on the inside the fortune could be anything.
Will finish later! sorry
