Emily Dickinson - If I can stop one Heart from breaking

If I can stop one Heart from breaking
I shall not live in vain
If I can ease one Life the Aching
Or cool one Pain

Or help one fainting Robin
Unto his Nest again
I shall not live in Vain.

Before any of you decide to comment this poem, may I suggest some English classes? I'm only 16 years old, and I've found more grammatical errors in these few comments than in my five year old nephews whole two years of speaking. Thanks!
