'Listen' has the exact same letters as 'Silent'. Coincidence?

I’m wife – Emily Dickinson

on April 29, 2013

I’m wife; I ’ve finished that,
That other state;
I ’m Czar, I ’m woman now:
It ’s safer so.

How odd the girl’s life looks
Behind this soft eclipse!
I think that earth seems so
To those in heaven now.

This being comfort, then
That other kind was pain;
But why compare?
I ’m wife! stop there!
