I Was Madly In Love With Emily Dickinson

I Did Not Stop For Death

it was a calm day in Amherst, the wind was blowing, the trees were swaying, Myself packing clothes into a bag so I could run away to the Dickinson's.

I never wanted to leave the boarding house i wanted to stay here for as long as i could, but that all kind of went down hill when my last sister decided to die on me, her name was Mary, she was my favourite.

My family never really had a life plan as our mother passed when she was giving birth to me which was heart breaking on all my family, even though they are all dead now but that's besides the point, Our father passed when I was young too and then so did my sisters, aunts, uncles, basically everyone, except for me.

So now i'm running off to one of my favourite places in the world.

Emily Dickinson's house

Me and Emily have always had a connection ever since me and her became friends, she always wrote poems for me that i loved, she cared for me and loved me, she comforted me when my family died, she was always there and i liked that.

You could say we had a little thing going on, because we do but no one knows about that, not even my fiancé Austin otherwise known as Emily's brother.

I was in the middle of finishing off packing when a knock at the door made me jump and spill water all over my clothes.

i walked over to the door slumped over from disappointment about my clothes and opened the door.

"Hello my beautiful sweet fiancé," austin said when i opened the door which made a smile unleash across me face .

"how are you my beautiful girl" he said when he looked at me, i gave him a tight lopsided smile, he pulled me into a kiss then a hug.

"i'm managing" i squeeze out from the lack of breath i was getting from the bear hug Austin had trapped me in.

"i'm always here for you, now where's your bags i need to take them out to the carriage ," he says as we pull back and i point to where they are and he goes over and picks them up.

....
time skip cause yeah

We arrived at the Dickinson's and i have to say i was sweating, my hands were clammy and my leg was bouncing from the nerves.

Austin walked up to the door with my bags in his hand and opened up the door for us to enter.

When i walked in i was filled with a feeling of calmness and comfort, the feelings i always felt when i was at the Dickinson's.

i was only in the house for ten seconds until i was sweeped into a hug.

"omg Florence i can't believe your here, i have so much to tell you and we have to draw and paint together this is going to be so fun," Lavinia says quickly and i just nod along with a smile on my face.

i look up to the stairs when i hear footsteps coming down them, showing the one and only Emily Dickinson.

Mr and mrs Dickinson began to walk out to hall too greet me.

"Florence darling how have you been, it's been so long since we last saw you," Mrs Dickinson says as she pulls me into a hug followed by a hug from Mr Dickinson.
