What isn't given to love, is so much wasted.

Thou, who wish to pummel such righteous soul,
Which homes in the body of thou who bear
Who weep secret amongst a gaping hole

O creature, embody thy beastly pure
Unknown presence who purge thy sun
Who bind her of being till’ which she cure

O vein beast, of womb grants no relation
Who occupy thy scholar and thy sane
Untamable beast; stealth of vocation


Unleash the marbles of that which remain
Vast, pure Earth, let them roll by their nature
With clear direction: O soul of free rein

Let those who weep a sad lullaby tune,
Rejoice in the beams of the godly moon!

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." -Lord Alfred Tennyson
