Love
Yes we do outgrow it when our hearts can no longer take the break it has
brought.

In this poem, Emily Dickinson compares love to clothes that you
eventually,but they hold such sentimental value that you do not want to
throw them out.

In this poem, I think Emily Dickinson is comparing the poem to clothes, and
is using the perspective of a person who does not believe in expressing
love all the time. "We outgrow love, like other things And put it in the
Drawer." this means that one gets tired of love and stows it away, just
like a person would if they had clothes that were too small or out of
fashion, but didn't have the heart to throw them out. "Till it an Antique
fashion shows Like Costumes Grandsires wore." This means that the person
would then express love again from time to time, like taking out clothes of
an antique fashion, to try them on again.

The poet tries to tell that as we experience and discover somethings, which
once seemed very unreachable, start to be an ordinary thing in time.
Dickinson uses the word "antique" not as a "priceless" but rather "an
ordinary" thing.
